I've wondered if there's a correlation between recruits who grew up learning to shoot and better performance as as riflemen in the military? If "a well regulated militia" carries the meaning of individual citizens practiced in the art of the rifle (forgive me Jeff Cooper), is the infantry made up with more people who possess previous marksmanship experience? Has the military (or anyone else) surveyed their ranks to see how many have previous shooting experience? Are American military better shots than members of other nation's armed forces where private gun ownership is banned or severely limited?
My hope is that previous shooting experience translates into better marksmanship, which would tend to prove the value of 2A to national security.
