The movie "Shooter"

Nope, no clue did not see that scene, watched about 10 minutes of the first thought it sucked, watched 10 more minutes later on, I was right.

(No I don't) the old man an assination expert named Mr.Rate...
played by Levon Helm who was the drummer for a band called
The Band in the 60's......played in other movies....Coal miners
Daughter and Feeling Minnesota as well as many others.....
I think he lives near Woodstock NY...Sorry.........I will tell
you this much, he's a real gem for sure..........I think it was
just something to let you know how wise he was.....The impression
was noone else could look at bob lee's hand and tell anything....
Yeah hollywood junk?????????????? I guess........Good plot, Good
sub plot,alot of action, Kate Mara, and one Heck of an ending....
Hoping for a Shooter II.........Who cares about the small details
about sniping...........
 
No clue what he was supposed to see in the hand. As long as I can turn off my BS filter when watching it, it's a good movie. The first time watching it, my wife looked at me and said "I don't wanna hear you calling BS every time something isn't right...save that for after it's over, cause I wanna hear what they're saying!"
 
Alright you dummies, heres the answer;

A "Gunny" is a "working man" in the army. If you noticed, he checked the FBI guys hands first when he handed him the cup of coffee....THEN checked A Working Man's hand...it showed that he "worked for a living".

The FBI guys hands would have been as soft as a babies botton.....[beeep] office guys....

Yeah I thought of that but, Gunny aint it the army or at least hasnt been for several years..
However I guess he does split wood and such?????? but what would that mean. My Dads
hand are callused he can shoot OK but far from knowing what it takes to be a sniper?????
and I know a candy azz who shoots pretty well....So I see what your're saying little toes
but that's my thought process on that.....I also thought he was looking for blood and
stuff under his finger nails??????? Heck maybe he was a fortune teller and was looking
at his palm...........he he.....What did the book say about it.??? If anyone read it???

A Gunnery Sgt has never been an Army rank. Swaggert was a Marine. Good flick, hotter chick.
