Thanks for your question.
Yes, as the parachute regiment is an infantry regiment you have the ability to pursue a career as a sniper.
The Guards and the Paras do all their courses together at a place called HDPRCC - Household Division Parachute Regiment Centralised Courses.
If you get selected and meet the criteria, you will attend a 9 week course in Pirbright, Surrey.
The sniper course is renowned for being one of the hardest courses in the British Army.
