Hello and thank you for your question.
You can become a Sniper within the SAS but it is a long process.
You can't join the SAS direct, you have to serve several years within the Army to learn how to become a soldier.
From there, you need to apply for SAS selection which only runs twice a year.
If you are successful, you will then need to be trained up to become a sniper within the SAS.
I hope this helps answer your question and if you have any more, please ask.
-Danny.
