This kind of celebrity will not endear you to your associates. Pointing a weapon in the general direction of the target and letting fly with a magazine full of ammunition is not likely to have a good effect. Effective fire is well disciplined and aimed. Conversely, even the bravest of soldiers will be put out of action by solid hits. Marksmanship has historically been a distinguishing characteristic of the American freeman.
Skilled shooting is learned, it is a discipline.
The proper foundation must be laid, and built upon with consistent practice. Shooters must become intimately familiar with their weapons and the principles of their effective use. In time, with dedication and experience, the shooter will become an expert marksman. There was a time in America when nearly every boy learned the basics of gun handling and marksmanship with a .22 rimfire rifle under the tutelage of his father. Shamefully, those days have passed.
