Not only was Oswald's rifle not used but AS FOUND could not have been used. The scope was not even attached properly and had to be shimmed by the US Army Ordinance Laboratory before it could be sighted properly. FBI marksmen were afraid that it would explode in their faces also. Working the bolt also proved extremely difficult too difficult for that gun to have been used to fire so quickly.

The gun was a PoS imported into the country as scrap metal.

I believe the name of the show was "Magic Bullet" or something very similar.

Now this, if true, is news. Got a source?

Other sources are telling us that the actual assassination rifle itself was used in tests, and performed quite well.
