So what else is new? I've read that the Mannlicher Carcano found in the
Texas Book Depository which "lone gunman" Lee Harvey Oswald supposedly used
to kill Kennedy had debris in its barrel (ask any skilled rifleman what that
does) and that its scope was dusty and wobbly. The Marines had the entire
armed services' most decorated sniper attempt to duplicate the miraculous
sequence of shots that killed Kennedy. Even using a stationary rather than
moving target, firing from the same angle at the same distance, the
military's top sniper could not hit the designated target accurately beyond
the first shot, although equalling "Oswald's" speed in firing several shots,
each time resighting.
Do those facts, plus Oswald's poor performance on the firing range while he
was in the
Marines, support our belief that JFK died from an "amateur" hit by a "lone
gunman"?
