No flash hider, lol idiot.
Flash hiders don't actually hide the flash. There's no good way to hide the muzzle flash and still put a round down range. Turning the lights on in the building would help, but then everyone would see the clowns inside.
Oh.
Haha
If someone has not done it by next week, I will be off vacation and at a computer in 7 days. I will stabilize the video
I tried with ffmpeg/vidstab. The quality is so bad, and since the dude is running most of the time, I don't think any meaningful stab can done on this vid
If someone has the original cut of the video, that may a different story
u/Joys1Daughter shared a post with it on the board. https://x.com/realDJStew724/status/1817347962638340491

editing to add if you dig in my past comments, this video also gives the closest view so far of the motorcycle outside the building's doors that a witness saw a guy dressed in black roll up on before the shooting.
Editing again to add this video just came out which is the even longer version. It clearly shows the 'flash' window 100% intact after the shooting. It was just a reflection. This is actually a very good video that pieces together some things that were hard to see in a lot of other clips. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28lxF9LONGk
From a position (or an angle) close to the line of a barrel, no flash suppressor can totally hide the muzzle flash. And seeking out a "hide" inside a building, well back from the window, is definitely in the sniper's handbook of tricks for concealment. I'm not claiming these pics are proof of anything, only that it comports with known shooting / sniping elements and should be studied closer.
THE PEOPLE WILL GET THE TRUTH ON EVERYTHING AT DECLASS.
Hope that happens soon
Did I hear glass breaking on the first shot? 🤔
The first three I think

I encourage everyone to send this information to Ron Johnson's investigation. He tweeted the kink to the email to send it. His investigation may be the best hope we have to getting to the bottom of this.
There does seem to be a very small "thump" that aligns with the shot from the window in the video, but it's quiet. One possibility is that this is a suppressed weapon, although given the lack of a more obvious noise, it would almost have to be using subsonic ammo. Suppressors will remove a lot of the noise from a rifle shot, but the sonic boom is still very loud, too loud to not get picked up by the camera here.
But suppressed rifles with subsonic ammo are very, very quiet, especially over the noise of a crowd where a small number of people are panicking and are very loud.
However, effective range becomes a major consideration with subsonic ammo. As an example, the most common subsonic rifle cartridge is typically .300 BLK (Blackout) and there you're talking an effective range of 150 yards or less, though an extremely skilled shooter that's experienced with the platform could probably stretch that a bit.
If we're able to get more context on this video in terms of exactly where it was at on the grounds and the President's positioning at the exact time of the shot, that will give us a better sense of whether a suppressed, subsonic platform was being used here.

Going down the Rabbit Hole.....
That window is on the first floor of the building behind the bleachers from Trump. That is probably a reflection off of something and not a muzzle flash.
Squirrel!
Ok, I stepped thru frame by frame. Shots 1,2,3 the cameraman dude is running, each frame is sky, or trees, or the ground. Shots 4,5,6,7,8 the camera is actually facing the building, but there is no flash coming from the window. Shot 9 (actually 10, since Shot 9 is not heard in this clip) the camera is pointed towards the sky and trees. No muzzle flash in the windows unless I missed something big here.
If this was Crooks, I could believe it. If this was a trained sniper, it a fake photo or he wanted to get caught. Jus sayin.
👀🔥
Ok so which of the first 8 rounds lines up with this supposed flash in the window? I can't tell.
None. There is no flash in the window period, let alone a flash that lines up with any of the shots.
This. John Cullen has been pushing bunk for a week or so now.
Video isn't great but the audio is.
