Sharpshooters don't come from nowhere.
They usually come from folks who were brought up with guns and an appreciation of guns.
Second amendment bump.
Reminder to the Brits and their assanine gun-bans. Imagine! The Brits were famous for their weapons a century ago.
Good for them!

Not so, Starfish. I happen to know several ( now former ) members of the SAS and none of them came from gunslinging backgrounds.
A win for the good guys bump!

My father, who was a lifetime NRA member, once told me the best marksman he ever knew was a man who had been a boy in the south in the 1920s, from a poor family, and if he didn't shoot something for dinner, they went hungry. Few bullets and an empty stomach made for a sharp eye.
