so there should still have been matter sent forward, anyone ever seen any evidence of that?

the majority of released matter from a rifle shot will follow the trajectory of the projectile, pretty simple physics, espescially when you consider exit wounds are almost always much larger than entry wounds,i can not in anyway believe the fatal shot came from the rear right.

Is the James Files story true? The weapon in question, a combination pistol-rifle would have been absolutely perfect for the short dimensions of Dealey Plaza. Especially concealment after the Assassination. Many witnesses thought a pistol had been fired/An Explosion had occurred. The location from which Files allegedly fired has been verified by Donald Thomas, the HSCA, and a peer reviewed British Science publication. Clearly there is a figure there in that precise spot in the Moorman Photo just to our right of a large tree the person is crouched with a possible barrel resting between the picket fence line....Jeff
It's possible that James Files story is "close" to the truth. The ammo available for the old 221 fireball was rifle ammo........The barrel of the Fireball pistol was too short to allow the slow burning rifle powder to burn completely. Consequently the unburned powder ignited when it hit the air at the muzzle....creating a hell of a boom and a fireball.... Recall that nearly all of the witnesses said they thought the loud "boom" was a railroad torpedo, a motorcycle backfire, or a cannon they had heard at football games.
Some folks say there is a fireball visible in some photos and several witnesses said they saw smoke on the G.K,
The wound on JFK's head is typical of the damage a Fireball pistol would inflict on a human head....
All of this tends to support James Files story that a Fireball pistol was one of the weapons used.
Anyway I am off to read through those links you have given.
Cheers!
