Having only seen the anime, I couldn't comment on how the manga presents it, but I don't think they are poor shots. They mentions something like 94 shots being fired in near total darkness between the 5 of them and not a single one hit the target. The vice-captain then showed quite a bit of suspicion about his elite unit not being able to shoot a single, unarmed person, and they seem to show a fair amount of disdain for him. My reading of the situation is that the vice-captain wanted them to assassinate the target and they don't want to become assassins. They want to remain primarily an infiltration and espionage unit, as they seem quite happy when the captain himself decides to forgo the assassination. I could be wrong, of course.
