Interesting, this is a rifle I was well aware of as well as the men involved. I could tell you most of the rifles used in assassinations because I had the interest. This one though, I would have said was a full wood iron sights. Apparently not.

Thanks for the link and 'backstory' MOS-45.

Thanks for the info. This is one I wasn't taught about or aware of. Glad they got the guy that did it.

This story hits a little close to home.
Interesting article well written.

I know one infamous rifle… A Carcano…;)
Besides jokes, very interesting. Thanks.

Did they find the missing bullet Ovidio, apparently Lee Harvey fired 3 rounds they said one passed through a street lamp shade another left a impact on the road surface ahead of JFK's limo, the other went through Kennedy and a service agent.
They said in the doco I watched it was an AD from a service agent in the following car that delivered the fatal wound to JFK's head with an AR style weapon.
Another doco that I came across showed the autopsy pictures and frame by frame assessment of the bullets impact in the vehicle, they basically said that President could not have survived the injury as it was of a catastrophic nature.

I do not follow politics in the USA, but I honestly believe that JFK along with Roosevelt were among the U.S.A's greatest leaders of the modern era.
RIP JFK.
(Lets not arc Badger up either by getting into politics!)

I have mentioned this book before. Good read for anyone interested in the JFK story.
