26. If It Accurately Simulated the Mannlicher-Carcano With a Bent Sight...
Edited on Mon Nov-22-04 05:46 AM by AndyTiedye
...that was supposedly used in the assassination, that would be quite
educational. The government's top sharpshooters couldn't replicate it
with the actual gun in the condition it was in, and even after they fixed the
sight I don't know if they could do it.

But he was using MAGIC bullets. :wtf:

The game might also allow the assassin to choose a Mauser rifle,
which is what was originally reported as the murder weapon.
When question were raised as to how a marginally-employed person
like Oswald could afford such an expensive rifle, the story changed,
and a Mannlicher-Carcano, with a bent sight, was presented as the gun
that killed JFK.

Would it also allow him to choose the grassy knoll?
