Representative Boggs. That was the point I was trying to establish.
Mr. Frazier. This Exhibit 549 is a target fired, showing that the weapon will, even under rapid-fire conditions, group closely—that is, one shot with the next.
Representative Boggs. How many shots in the weapon? Five?
Mr. McCloy. The clip takes six itself. You can put a seventh in the chamber. It could hold seven, in other words. But the clip is only a six-shot clip.
Representative Boggs. Was the weapon fully loaded at the time of the assassination?
Mr. McCloy. I don't know how many shells—three shells were picked up.
Mr. Eisenberg. Off the record.
(Discussion off the record.)
Mr. McCloy. Back on the record.
Mr. Eisenberg. Mr. Frazier, turning back to the scope, if the elevation crosshair was defective at the time of the assassination, in the same manner it is now, and no compensation was made for this defect, how would this have interacted with the amount of lead which needed to be given to the target?
