    should I include my Expert marksmanship qualification or CHL? I don't want to seem like I am just into the gun/shooting side of it.

    Yes. Don't be shy/modest/etc.... but don't brag either. Just state the facts.

    so saying that I knocked out and apprehended Chuck Norris, while blindfolded isn't a good bullet point?

    Ha. Probably not... unless you can rephrase it. Though, it would be a great story to bring up in the interview.

    - Apprehended and knocked out Chuck Norris while blindfolded. (Interview me, great story) HAHA

    Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to Fight, he'll just kill you.

    Include all of your qualifications. You need to blow your horn loud enough to stand out from the rest of the crowd, but not loud enough to gain the "obnoxious" tag before they've even interviewed you. You're not just into the gun/shooting side of things, and the rest of your resume will show that. But you also want them to understand that you are skilled with guns, not just familiar with them.
