I pray this is true and that they have the killer in hand. But I will be VERY skeptical if he has no history of weapons training. The shot heard round the world was NOT an easy shot and only a pro could have pulled it off. Let's see what develops. God has CK now .... he is home.
I was hitting 300, 400 and 450 yard targets in high school with little training with 5.56x45 NATO. That was with iron sites (peep).
Its easier than you think. The issue with the weapon is being familiar with the controls so you can operate it. The rifle he used was designed to be simple and able to reach out a long way to touch someone.
The bigger issue is the psychological one.
The military teaches you how to kill people. Civilian life does not, but hate or brainwashing goes a long way.
It's one thing to site down at the range on a paper target in the shape of a person. It's another thing to actually pull the trigger on a live person.
If he pulled this off - shooting and killing a human - from a roof and over top of dozens of people in his line of fire ... I'd say that qualifies him as a psychopath.
not a professional shot. stop it. 200 yards from an elevated position. Now I'm all ears if he wasn't working alone but this is not a 800 yard shot which starts getting into amateur/professional shooting.
^^^^^ This. Anyone that thinks this was a difficult shot either doesn't shoot or can't shoot. And don't forget, it was actually a miss. I guarantee you he was going for a head shot. Any intermediate shooter could have done it. Many more would have been on target.
All shots killing humans, especially if you've never done it before are hard. This was a high stress situation. I can't see a person with zero experience and training could do it, unless he's a psychopath with a history or hurting animals.
It does look like a miss...some say it hit his body armor plate and then ricocheted into his neck. Would that explain his shirt puffing out and up in the false flag videos?
Kirk was under a tent when shot. Maybe only his kneck was visible. The neck is just as lethal as a head shot. Maybe even more so. A head shot or body shot may still allow the target to live aND have a voice afterwards. NOt so with a neck shot. This was to silence him for good.
If you put my wife behind a scoped rifle on a tripod with nothing other to do than pull the trigger she would probably miss her shot or simply not be able to even pull the trigger
What people are saying is untrained normie would not be able to do it even if to the average marksman 200m is an easy shot
And hell regular shooters can miss at 100m when at the range. Recreational shooters often have horrible scores at 50m. I find it hard to believe a 22 year old potentially trans kid just nailed it under pressure
My family gives me crap because I "only" can hit shots up to 200 yards at the range. I have horrible vison and im always shaky. 200 yards is a fairly easy shot for most people
Most people can start shooting well with a few trips to the range. The rest of the puzzle takes a little more but not that challenging.
Knowing how to set up the gun or knowing who to have set up your gun and using the right caliber for the intent and distance. 200 yards is not a difficult shot with the appropriate elements above.
exactly. I know hunters who have hunted for years, since boyhood, with very good rifles and rarely can make an exact kill shot like that, they dream of it.

I disagree that only a pro could make that shot.
200 yards with a pistol? Sure, near impossible.
With a Mauser, 30-06, and a zeroed scope, almost anyone with minimal training could hit that.
I pray it's the right person and the threat isn't on-going, but I'm not pretending this 22-year old shithead is a pro or well-trained.

All true, but shooting a human in a very stressful situation is something else entirely. Of course, he may be a psychopath with no empathy.

Fair

Yeah, well.... 👍
That's two different things entirely.
The weapon and a person with minimal training is able to hit a target out that far easily.
Don't confuse it. What you're talking about is a psychological difficulty of shooting another living person. Two completely different things.

Did you just call me a normie

especially when satan helps you aim and fire
So not a shooter? This is not that difficult.
exactly. I know hunters who have hunted for years, since boyhood, with very good rifles and rarely can make an exact kill shot like that, they dream of it.
Very wrong. Either that or your hunter friends are some of the worst i've ever heard of.
I was making 300 - 450 yard shots consistently in high school. With even just a little practice it isn't hard.
The harder part is the second part, the psychological aspect of pulling the trigger on a person.
