As a non-American, I am very proud of you having that right in your country. Concealed carry is definitely a crime deterrent. Criminals are less likely to commit a violent act against someone they believe may be armed.

My recon course. This was the most physically demanding thing I have ever experienced. No food or sleep for 5 days (water only) was extremely difficult, our backpacks weighted 100 pounds. Very mentally and physically demanding. At the end of the 5 days, you are given a potato and a live chicken.

Environments are the most important consideration when doing long range shooting, so your environmentals are your elevation, your angle. The long shots are portrayed by the productions as a simulation as there is always a little bit of Hollywood attitude added. You are just concentrating on your job, there is nothing in your mind other than that task.

Although it's something I don't lose sleep over, there is always that chance that there could be an act of revenge. There are things put in place for that sort of thing, but anybody who serves in the military or law enforcement takes a risk when standing against people like this. Re: being a famous sniper, positive. I take it very seriously. I take it as an onus upon myself in the Canadian sniper community.
