Representative Sniper
Whether you call him an assassin, a hitman, a contract killer, or a hired gun, it means the same. Killing is his job. While soldiers, mercenaries, “Private Military Contractors”, snipers, or professional terrorists typically have to kill someone to accomplish their mission, that mission typically involves something other than just killing — protecting a VIP, destroying or capturing an objective, spreading fear amongst the local population, etc. A Professional Killer’s job typically is to kill one specific person and nothing else… ~ Professional Killer – TV Tropes
