Certainly anything is possible, but this is still very reach-y. I don't consider myself a firearms expert but I know my way around them and people that know more then me have not casted any doubt on it being a rifle caliber or taken from the front.

No doubt either that there is magic and trickery to these ops, but that's also why I don't care much about who pulled the trigger... that's just a pawn... the story is bigger than who was there that day.

As Bannon says, I want who killed him, not just who pulled the trigger.

Getting mired into what may or may not have happened on scene ignores the bigger questions of who set it up, why, and why now.
