Disarm for rangers

Not a very important thing and not one that concerns me particularly since I hardly ever use disarm, but the fact rangers miss this skill seems more an oversight than anything else.

So the proposal is to give to rangers as well the skill of disarming foes.

...Rangers don't get disarm?

I'll throw in my agreement with this suggestion.

I'm getting suspicious, lack of both grip and disarm?

I wonder if the thinking was that rangers should have less fighter skills for some reason.

I don't know about 3.5 but in path finder, your most likely to find the ranger taking feats that support his fighting style. Its usually suboptimal to give them the improved combat maneuver feats. Whereas fighters are the ones who often take the improved disarm / trip / sunder so to me it makes sense that they wouldn't get the skills here.

Don't take this as an argument against though. Just informing of my experience in the past and how it would relate here.
