As Shooter 2.5 and others have pointed out - 'silencers' don't really 'silence', a 'report' (from the muzzle) would have still been heard by somebody (there were a LOT of people down there that day - and I suspect quite a number of plain-clothes officers and as well as SS agents in the crowd as well)...

Witnesses reported two types of gunshots, sharp cracks and muzzled shots.

I simply -quite simply- don't believe you ...

I shall assert now that the moon is made of green cheese, and, since it's been established in some circles that we could not have *possibly* been there you are without a means to prove me either right or wrong ... contentions such as yours aspired to 'greatness' at the time the first 'conspiracy book' was proven false in 1964, at which time the conspiracy industry then turned to the 'Grassy Knoll' as their savior and source of 'shots' ...
