http://science.howstuffworks.com/sniper.htm This website tells you how military snipers work :) I'm no sniper myself, but I have been to the army. All soldiers go through Basic Millitary Training (for my country) before being posted to a vocation (such as sniper). In which they will receive further more specialised training.
Cutoff age is 42 for the Army. Even as a trained sniper/sharpshooter, you have to consider that what you were trained for (I'm assuming law enforcement) is significantly different or more oriented on one aspect of it than military sniper training is.
you go to cadets training until you reach sniper badge and then you will be successful enough to fight in war as a sniper man. Enlist in the Army, choose infantry as your MOS. Go to basic training, AIT, qualify as an expert on the rifle range and then you can apply to sniper school. Get accepted to sniper school, successfully pass the school and then you may be entitled to a sniper slot. Not everyone who goes to sniper school will function as a sniper in their unit.
