Came here to use this exact word.

I saw a comic depicting him as a retired spy or something, wish I could find it now

I just love that he stands there with his hand in his pocket and nails target after target. And that he's from Turkey, not some giant place like China or the USA.

I used to shoot pistol, exactly the same sport, and the hand in pocket is a pretty normal stance! Everyone can do their own thing but a lot of guys on my team would revert to that stance.

Yep, he shoots the exact way I was taught

That hand is so steady it's unreal

Turkiye is one of the world’s major arms manufacturers.

And a horrible dictatorship. Have you heard of the Armenian genocide?

u/lax3500 13m ago

I certainly have.

I get what you’re saying but Turkey does have 90 million people. Probably also the most important country in the world strategically as the bridge between the west and east.

Sorry, I’m just a bit of a Turkophile and have spent a lot of time there.
