Kyle is a former Recon Marine as well as a Marine Corps foreign weapons instructor. During his time in the Marines he deployed twice to Afghanistan as a team designated marksman and assistant team leader. As an avid gun enthusiast he sought out every opportunity to enhance his knowledge of firearms while in the military, and has personal experience with almost every man-portable firearm in the Marine Corps inventory. Currently he is attending college at Oklahoma State University and competes as part of the university shotgun sports team. Outside of shotgun practice Kyle enjoys shooting his various rifles and pistols as well, and if you see someone on the range shooting life-size raptor targets while wearing full combat equipment, that’s probably him.
