Here's an interesting though. You've got the white, nondescript panel van driving through urban traffic. It stops for a stop light in traffic. The shooter opens his gun port/window/door, acquires a random target, and shoots. The driver drives off as soon as the light changes. For most of the area around where I work, this would mean a firing distance of anywhere from less than 50 meters to more than 400. Easily done with the proper firearm and stable shooting platform, (remember the van is stopped in traffic). The van would never be seen in a parking lot, would be highly mobile, and would fade into the background clutter of an urban setting.

Things that make me go hmmm...

You don't think engine vibration would affect a shot at 150 yards?

...interesting...makes me wonder if this person isn't ex-military or police(like swat)...this shooter is deadly accurate, getting his target in one shot...
