[...] Let me state up front that the flood of alternative theories about the firearm used to kill Charlie (e.g., a palm-pistol, a .30-06 rifle, a .22 pistol with a silencer) and the direction of the shot — i.e., from the front, from the side and from behind — tells me that Charlie’s murder was not the work of just one pissed-off 22-year-old who was in love with a transgender furry. Creating a number of false stories and false leads is something that an intelligence organization does in order to misdirect a law enforcement investigation. Frankly, we witnessed the same phenomena with the failed assassination attempt on Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania in July 2024.
For starters, it was not a palm-pistol that delivered the fatal shot. The ballistic sound recorded on film when Charlie was shot is not consistent with a pistol. But beyond the problems with the sound, a palm-pistol is a point-and-shoot weapon and it is not a firearm that allows for pinpoint accuracy. If you are seven yards away from the target — and you are shooting at a bullseye — you are not likely to hit the bullseye. Even the most skilled pistol shooters have trouble hitting a two-inch target at 25 yards and beyond. I have double-checked my thinking with one of my FBI Hostage Rescue Team buddies and he agrees.
While I have finally found a photo of a Mauser that can be quickly broken down (hat tip to Zarael), there is no way, short of using a specially created rifle cartridge, that the bullet that entered Charlie’s throat was a .30-06 fired from a Mauser. However, Special Operations forces and paramilitaries associated with intelligence organizations do have the ability (and have done so) to create rounds that will not go through the body but will cause massive damage. If that is the case here, then we are looking at an organized conspiracy because Tyler Robinson, based on what we now know, did not have that set of skills.
