Enfield is trash and no way you could hit a 100 yd shot.

Swiss one is trash too.

1903 is trash

Do you want me to keep finding ads or are you going to admit a less than 100 yd shot is pretty doable even with a cheap gun?

Then you are saying that under the same physical and psychological conditions and same weapon, that you could have pulled off the same result that Oswald allegedly did?

How did you duplicate the stress levels that would be induced by taking the shot in broad daylight with the intended target being the leader of the free world?

It's not a difficult shot when done on paper with range conditions.

I think the psychological aspect of the shot is often overlooked/rarely considered.

Basing my opinion on recorded interviews, LHO does not strike me as cool and calculated.

I'm not saying he wasn't the shooter, nor am I making an argument for some elaborate conspiracy.

After all, a lot of the same people involved, also pushed the Gulf of Tonkin event as a casus belli to escalate our involvement in SE Asia.

To see the location in photos and to actually be there and see it with your own eyes are two different things. When I went through MEPS last time in Dallas I took a walk over to the location (literally across the street) and walked it all out and looked at a couple of the possibilities that have been brought up in many conspiracy theories. This was my impression…

First off it’s a ridiculously close shot. With the speed the motorcade was traveling and path of the road there was more than an ample window of opportunity to take those shots while the Presidents car would have been moving directly away from the target effectively making it as near to a stationary target as you can get without it actually stopping in the street. The window is in a near perfect location for those shots.

Second, the “grassy knoll” is such a very small area that once you actually see it you’re like “how the hell could someone have been hiding here”? It’s such a small area and people are standing all around it at the time of the assassination that there is just no way to have the ability to shoot and not be immediately heard or seen. Not only that but then you’re shooting at a target moving perpendicular from you, not to mention the fact that all the people standing around would have been in the way of the shot. I mean it’s literally as small as my front yard which ain’t saying much.

I often feel that the people that think it’s a hard shot to make would change their minds if they visit the location and have any knowledge of shooting at all. It really shifted my opinion on it all. From a simple standpoint of being doable or not there’s no doubt in my mind that it was quite possible for even a rather poor shot to make.

The magic bullet has absolutely been debunked multiple times. The original analysis was flawed due to incorrect positioning of JFK and Connoley in the presidential limo. Once you take into account the jump seat and connoley being turned at the time of the shot it matches.

Agreed. It was a massive oversight.  I think some of the contributing factors were 1. The route was changed a few days before and 2. Most of their security concerns were related to protests and civil unrest on the ground, not a nutjob with a rifle in a window.

The shots have been discussed here already. I have NOT been there to see if first hand. The ranges I have read about seem completely doable with a 4x scoped rifled. Fire 1 round. You have 6 seconds to fire 2 more. Braced position. If you can't hit a slow moving target at less than 100 yds, you need to practice more.

Mitchell Werbell delivered a suppressed rifle to a hotel room in Dallas a few days before the assassination and he recognized 3 of 5 individuals in the room as people he knew or previously worked with including E. Howard Hunt.  He told this to an investigator for the Select Committee on Assassinations in an interview at his home in Georgia.

Yes, but you're looking at it from a single-shot perspective.  You are quantifying this by thinking, I could easily be here in this window, aim and fire one shot with a rifle at that X and get a hit at that distance.

Things you aren't taking into account:

- It was 3 shots in just under 6 seconds on a bolt action rifle.  Two have to be hits.
- Target was moving.  Albeit slowly, it was moving.
- Stress (time, cover, ensuring you're not seen/stopped by others in the building, etc)
- Tree and foliage in the way (at the time).
- Crappy rifle and crappy ammo.

I'm not saying that Oswald didn't do it - just pointing out the absurdity of simply going to Dealey Plaza, into the TSBD and looking out the window thinking, "wow - what an easy shot".

This theory is right up there with “Fire can’t melt steel”.  -or- Missiles hit the Pentagon!    

One has to assume that he started with a loaded rifle, right?    The first shot starts the timer, so it’s 2 shots in 6 seconds?
This is a gun forum.    It wasn’t a difficult shot.

The assassination probably Was a conspiracy, but I don’t understand why people latch onto the most Unlikely scenarios.       It’s really bizarre.

That’s all a load of horse shit. “One shot in a vacuum” lol. Go see it for yourself. It’s nothing too difficult to pull off. Plus the speed of the vehicle and angle the road travels would make the target move so slow that it being a moving target is almost a non issue.

Back in the day I heard that the Warren Commission had used two if not more rifle experts in order to test the rifle and approximately the same conditions out.

Maybe Hathcock was one of those.

I was 10 years old at the time and in school when Kennedy was shot. The nuns told us about it, and I saw it on TV later that day, so not "live". But I was watching TV when Ruby shot Oswald, in real time. I don't recall ever seeing another "live" murder since.
