Things Ct's can do to prove a conspiracy.

[Tim Nickerson]

Numerous people and groups far more qualified than LHO failed in recreations over the years.

Name them.

If it wasn't going to be used, why would it have been left on the rifle then?

Perhaps Oswald didn't know he was going to use the irons until after he fired the first shot while looking through the scope.

There was no reason to have ever removed the scope mount in the 1st place. The so called 38" bag that was never photographed where it allegedly was found at the SN, was 8" width flat and 6" diameter.  The scope could have been left attached after barrel removed from stock and stil fit in that bag:

[Jack Trojan]

LOL! It took him three tries before he actually hit the target. You call that superhuman marksmanship? You kooks crack me up.

Huh? Didn't the MB and the head shot hit the target? Isn't that 2 for 2 using the iron sights after missing the 1st shot thru the wonky scope? You're  bloody right that's superhuman marksmanship. Has anyone replicated it? You dumasses crack me up.

The reason to exclude the scope was because it was more than useless. It was in the way. Why include it when you know you aren't going to use it? Give Oswald some credit. The scope was never sighted in so he was either an expert marksman that kept a useless scope on the rifle and used the iron sights or he was a patsy that never even took a shot and the scope was left on the rifle to match the BYPs as part of his sheep-dipping. Since no one has duplicated this feat, I lean toward the latter.

Come on. Do you know how ridiculous that sounds? Oswald knew the scope wasn't sighted in and therefore useless. In which case, why even take the 1st shot looking thru the scope? Damned impressive recovery, however, to bolt in the next 2 rounds and score twice after switching to the iron sights in 5 secs flat. Any honest military marksman would confirm that.

No.

The scope was not in the way.

The fact that the worthless scope was on the rifle is also an indication that Lee was set up....  That scope lent credence to the tale that was immediately broadcast that the arch villain Lee Harrrrrvey Osssssswald (Booooo Hisssss !) was crack shot with a high powered and highly accurate rifle that was equipped with a "telescopic Sight".   

We now know that the "telescopic sight" was nothing but a stage prop to trick us into accepting the tale that was being presented.   There are still many suckers who refuse to accept the FACT that they were duped, and the scope was used to sell them the lie......
