I get all that brother... what I am saying is that games are game and the consequences of gameplay are universes apart from the potential consequences of brain surgery or combat. People are generally a little more critical of the instruction they receive in regards to life-safety issues. If you arnt.. that's fine. I am, and that is what I was trying to convey.

Fair enough. I don’t think my point conflicts with yours, or vice-versa. I think we’re each making different — but equally valid — points.

It depends entirely upon the person, but making a living doing something you love may not turn out to be all it is cracked up to be. |

I think the essential quality that gets overlooked at lot of the time is that a firearms/marksmanship instructor - first and foremost - has to be able to convey his/her knowledge to the student in a way that the student can grasp, practice and then put into action. And it doesn't matter if somebody's neighbor thought they were the best instructor in the world, if they can't teach a particular student, that student should look for someone else. Someone may have been an Army Ranger or Navy Seal, but if they aren't able to teach ice how to melt, they are worthless as an instructor and someone looking to invest their money in instruction should look elsewhere. |
