Tell you a story from my military memory files. Bunch of nurses and doctors out on the army qualifying ranges .. m4s open sights out to 300m you know. 2 qualified expert out of about 60 or so. Boy from Alabama, another from Wyoming. (We are still friends.)
Lots of chattering and jabbering from that mix. Mix of political perspectives.
Guess who that group looked to for security (and a bunch of other stuff)?
It's very interesting to me how many in our country will deny or encroach on those rights that foster the very shooting skills that go on to defend the country. There is a link between 2nd amendment exercise to include childhood training on weapons and military readiness, regardless of MOS.
A lot of Audie Murphy's in our history. Mostly unsung.
