Commies usually rely more on human wave tactics than individual skill. The would be Trump assassin only got that far by, to the point of collusion, establishment incompetence since he was spotted WELL in advance of actually shooting so if one of the rally goers had an AR there would've been no attempt..
The best ones to have rifles are usually rural farm hands and the like who have to shoot animals to protect their livelihood. They not only have the experience of shooting a moving object at range but of killing as there's a massive difference between a target and actually killing something.
I enjoy hearing stories of hunters and farmers becoming war heroes, like the Red Baron or the White Death. Hell, Imperial Germany wanted to make shotguns a war crime given how fucking good American soldiers were with them in WW1, with apocryphal accounts of US troops skeet-shooting grenades out of the air.
Yeah I've encountered enough leftists to realize that while they are dangerous in terms of what they are willing to do and to who (random attack against soft targets like kids) they aren't dangerous in terms of how skilled they are. Many complain about capitalism or the system from metro areas where they never actually do anything remotely strenuous. Video games, board games and casual drinking occupy all their time.
That said, anyone can be taken by surprise or a pot shot and these guys are not above spraying into a crowd of kids or plowing into a parade.
In a straight up fight they'd get destroyed hands down. But they won't do that. They'll go after innocents or non combatants.
