What is Markmanship?

Marksmanship is the skill combination the mechanics of the


human body, the focus of the mind, and the physics of ballistic to
place an object where you want it to be at some distance away.
In other words, hitting the mark where it is.
Marksmanship is much like any other martial art. It time, study,
and practice to develop. Those who are highly skilled at it compete
against one another in the same way that golfers and MMA fighters
do.

HISTORY OF A GUN
The gun is a range typically designed pneumatically discharge
solid projectiles but can also be liquid (as in water guns/cannons and
projected water disruptors)or even charge particles(as in a plasma
gun) and may be free flying(as with bullets and artillery shells)or
tethered (as with Taser guns, spearguns and harpoon guns). The
means of projectile propulsion vary according to designs, but are
traditionally affected by a high gas pressure contained within a
shooting tube (gun barrel),produce either through the rapid
combustion of propellants (as with firearms) or by mechanical
compression (as with air guns). The high-pressure gun is introduced
behind the projectile, accelerating it down the length of the tube,
imparting sufficient launch velocity to sustain its further travel
towards the target once the propelling gas ceases acting upon it at
the end of the tube. Alternatively, acceleration via electromagnetic
field generation may be employed, in which case the shooting tube
may be substituted by guide rails ( as in railguns) or wrapped with
magnetic coils ( as in coilguns). The first devices identified as guns
appeared in China from around CE.1000. By the 12th century, the
technology was through the rest of Asia, and into Europe by the 13th
century.
