The late Sean Connery will fondly be remembered as the first James Bond in the 007 franchise, and the man who took the series to greater heights in the seven films he starred. James Bond is a fictional British Intelligence spy character who’s good with both firearms and women. At just 16 years old, Sean joined the Royal Navy, where he learned everything about weapons. His famous smooth and natural weapon-handling skills were flawless since he spent a lot of time with real weapons in the Royal Navy.
