The arkers are more trained with guns, yes guns can mow down multiple people but when up against people who use gorilla warfare you are at a disadvantage. I mean when you have multiple people jumping out of trees spearing people your going to be in shock and your not going to instantly ingage in a fight.

If you look back at season 3 Lincoln was training the arkers to fight grounders. I was kind of disappointed they never expanded on this. That's true as well, since they focus on spears and close quarter combat, they would be stronger or at least more skilled.

I've wonder what would a fight be like between Veteran Sky Soldiers vs. Veteran Grounder Soldiers (hand-to-hand)

That scene where Lincoln was fighting Bellamy, I thought it was for workout purposes not actually training. Since Grounders and Sky People are close to each other I expect an integrated culture with Soldiers on both sides learning hand to hand combat and conventional combat
