Default A dirty gun...

There are very few good shooters among the uniformed guys, cops or
military. I'm not saying there are none. There are some who are real
marksmen with sidearms. But most I see don't shoot well. The cops are
by
far the worst, even at relatively short distances, like, oh, 21 feet.

Now, I would assume the military guys are more adept with rifles. But I
never see them shoot them, so I don't know for sure.



John, you should invite Harry to go down to the range at the Norfolk Navy
base. As retired military, I am sure you can go there and bring a guest.

Mostly active duty Marines shooting there, keeping their qualifications up
to date.
I spent some time there with my son ... usually the only civilian in the
joint. I was impressed.
