Sorry, Nobody saw Oswald shoot anyone. They said they saw "Someone". Not Oswald.

The palm print found on the rifle was not found until after Oswald's death. If I remember correctly it was found after taking the stock off of the weapon and the print was found on the barrel itself UNDER the stock. Kind of odd how this evidence appears after the FBI and possibly some other federal agents visited the Funeral home where Oswalds body lay in state.

One in particular, Howard Brennon, saw a man fire the fatal shot. His description of the killer was the one that went out on the police radio just 15 minutes after the killing.

That description led to his arrest in the movie theatre after he killed Kennedy and then gunned down Officer Tippit.

The Mannlicher-Carcano was Oswald's. He ordered the rifle, signed for it using the alias that he commonly used, posed for a camera with it, practiced in the Trinity River bottoms with it and left it at his workplace. The three fired cartridge cases came from the rifle to the exclusion of all others. Owald's handprint was on the wrapping paper and his palm print was on the barrel. No curtain rods were found anywhere in the Depository.

You don't think he tried to wipe the rifle down before he stashed it?
How else do you think the investigators were able to compare a palm print off a rifle? Are your palm prints on file somewhere?
