They cannot all be as skilled as us.

I been shooting since before I had hair on my yakahoola (whatever that means). Most Americans have. You cannot expect the same discipline from those who got a 2 week training session.

2 weeks ????

I thought that to become a secret service man you had to go through alot of training a.s.o and it would take a few years, before you could call yourself a secret service man.

I shot my first weapon at age 7. A shotgun, I held it against my face like I saw in movies, and gave myself a black eye. (I kept missing, so I held it like a rifle, my uncle laughed at me, and called me a moron)
My training course was life experience, hunting game, and tin cans

Not a paper target, and a loud instructor.

That was my point, maybe 2 weeks is inaccurate.
