The word "sniper" i think you'll find has bad juju round these parts..it infers a bit of a rambo complex and isnt relative to either hunting or target shooting.

What's the point of all this - that the general public don't know much about guns? Hardly headline news.

Its just his interpetation of the dictionary. Everyone should know by now that information is not always clear and can be inturpreted in several ways alot of the time .Take the definition of a gun under irish law currently a spud gun is a licensable firearm.

I'd hope there aren't many spud guns producing more than one joule of energy.
