I have know quite a few from serving in special units. There are also Air Force “counter snipers”. I have encountered the gun store chit chatters and even met one fella at the VA hospital that was a SEAL, Delta, Recon, and Green Beret all within his three year stint. I called him a liar and told him to leave me alone, he jumped for me and I put him down right there in the waiting room of radiology. It was a big scuffle and the last time I did anything at the VA other than my required checkups to stay in the system. I use the bases or private doctors now.
I had to attend a course from sniper instructors on camouflage.
There are those being otherwise legit riflemen claiming to be snipers stealing valor to You give him the Ol' judo chop? 😁
Do not regret growing older, it's a privilege denied to many!

Does having an Elcan on a 240B count?  Hold it loosely and plant your back leg!

Just because you qualified expert during basic training and continued to do so during your military career doesn’t make you a sniper. I qualified on the grenade assault course as expert thirty years ago but that doesn’t make me an expert on explosives. But I did get assigned a M203 which is a cool weapon.

Met two. An older fellow who made his own simple syrup to kill flies on the four corners of his range targets. He also had black&white pictures of himself and Carlos Hathcock and said "Everything you hear bout Hathcock is mostly true." Second one was a skinny 150lb kid at gunschool.
Skinny is my EX.Alcohol was involved.

. Lots of stolen valor out there. I can confirm 3. One is an Sniper Instructor in the Army, one is former scout sniper USMC and retired LEO and one USMC Recon/scout active duty. All are a different breed. They don't boast or brag about being one. Great men..
