Dunno if agree with you here, Minty. Although "gun handling" its not very hard to master up to a decent level, that is just one aspect of becoming a good player.
Take myself as an example. I've been playing AC for quite a while now, I perform pretty well with all weapons (I'm a Knife Master), I know my way around the maps and if you watch me play a pub you will see that I sure can kill (lots) and yet I struggle on a match against players that can't aim half as well as I can. Caus again, handling the guns is the easy part of the thing, it only demands time and a little bit of dedication while the other tactical aspects of the game (and those are the ones that truly make the good players) are much harder to acquire. I personally got to a point where I'm just to busy and too old to spend shit loads of time studying maps, demos and training tactics just to figure among the top 50 players of an online game. I come to AC simply to kill some nubs in a full pub and crack jokes with some very good friend I made around here.
As of lately I started to change an opinion that I had for quite some time: that of AC should concentrate in a balance good for pubs. I see now that this is kinda senseless, since the pubers come here just for kicks. The devs should concentrate in the competitive side of thing and we pubers and weekend players will sure adapt.
