I think it's probably accurate to say that it takes a short time to get military personnel to Guns Sport (Rifle)-12, which is a combat skill of DX-1, or Guns-9. That's more consistent with observed results.

The requirements to get to Guns-12 in combat situations are much higher, and require intensive and realistic training only given to the real shooters.
I personally think that's because most people have Pacifism (Reluctant Killer), which neatly covers how people can easily perform up to Guns (Rifle) 12+ standard on the firing range with minimal training, but most people miss like they have only skill 6-10 under combat conditions.
