My #44 answers your #43 -- but i now add the following.
In my below drawing on the side-photo of Queen Mary…..
…..If Hickey was as per his standard height (green ellipse shows his head) then he would have to hold the AR15 at almost chin height to do the dirt deed.
…..If Hickey's was half way up to being fully erect (blue ellipse shows head height but not necessarily pozzy) then he would have to hold the AR15 say 1" above chest height.
…..If Hickey were fully erect (red ellipse) then he would have to hold the AR15 say 4"  below chest height.
Now, the (poor 2017 museum copy of the) Bronson footage shows us that at B07 (which is equivalent to Z312)(the time of the headshot) Hickey was indeed at that frame half erect (height = blue ellipse).
And, we can't see (too blurry) whether Hickey was ever higher than the blue ellipse – he might have been (his auto burst must have started a say half second before Z313, ie at say Z304 or earlier).
The AR15 was laying somewhere on the floor – Hickey grabbed it & lifted it up with difficulty in the small space between his feet & the back of O'Donnell's jump seat – probly pointed down a bit – then he lifted it above O'Donnell's head & swung it around from pointing left to pointing right – while shimmying to Hickey's right so that he could get his legs out of the cramped space behind O'Donnel's seat (there was 3" of air between the front of Hickey's seat & the back of the top of O'Donnell's seat)(it was impossible to stand unless Hickey bent forward at say 45 deg while jamming his crutch forcefully into the back of O'Donnell's head)(so, Hickey had to shimmy to the center of Queen Mary).
Hickey would have intended to swing around to the rear towards the TSBD – but he didn’t get that far – Kinney braked Queen Mary & Hickey lurched forward onto O'Donnell (there was one witness) -- & Hickey accidentally squeezed the trigger (he should not have put his finger on the trigger until he had a definite target)(this was Hickey's first day with the AR15)(the AR15 was on SAFETY & cocked & loaded)(according to SSA Floyd Boring & according to SSA Kellerman)(Hickey flicked the selector back past SEMI all the way to AUTO while he was lifting it).
The first shot of the accidental auto burst (of at least 4 shots) went over the windshield of the JFK limo – this or a later shot resulted in Tague's bloody left cheek. The AR15 swung downwards as Hickey fell – an AR15 usually naturally swings up during a burst, but the up was trumped by the down.
The 2nd last shot of the burst passed over the windshield of Queen Mary & under the divider/rollbar of the JFK limo, & made a huge dent in the chrome trim above & just right of the rear vision mirror – it must have been a hollow-point koz a sharp nosed slug would have made a hole.
The last shot of the burst hit JFK in the head, & the remnant slug veered 6 deg & cracked the windshield – the remnant slug must have then bounced out onto the street without hitting anyone.
Hickey then fell backward back onto the 2 leather cases – his standard half sitting half standing pozzy (a few witnesses)(& as seen in the Bronson footage).
While lifting & swinging he could have had the AR15 under his armpit (as u insist) -- or more likely the AR15 was out in front of him & a little higher than his armpit (my reckoning) – bearing in mind that he had to lift the AR15 well up over O'Donnell's head to swing around (so, no, the AR15 was not in Hickey's armpit)(it was out front, & high up).
Re your linked footage – the shooter duznt ever place his AR15 anywhere near his armpit – this duznt help your argument – why did u include that link?

So, which bit(s) of my Hickey theory do u rate as impossible or improbable or whatever?

         This is flawed from the jump. Hickey "sitting high up" was NOT at the same level as the guy in front of him. He was well above the guys in front of him and the agent alongside him in that back seat. You need to look at the films again. And that Bell footage issa joke. You can Not tell which agent is which. They coulda shifted around inside the Limo. This is currently not worthy of consideration.

   The above is NOT a response to your putting Hickey at the WRONG HEIGHT inside the JFK Limo. And the Bell Footage you are offering as proof even FAILS the Mr Magoo Test.

How did Robin Unger miss 6 of the 26 frames?
Weissman tells us that the Museum gave him 26 2017 frames & 26 2019 frames. So, we can assume that that Bronson sequence in mid Elm St had at least 26 frames. But, praps there were more than 26, ie the Museum might have hidden some frames. But lets assume that there were only 26.

(1) Praps the Museum's 2017 youtube had 6 frames missing koz the Museum wilfully hid 6  frames.
(2) Praps the Museum's 2017 youtube had 6 frames missing koz the Museum accidentally hid 6  frames.
(3) Praps Robin Unger missed seeing/finding 6 of the 26 frames on youtube.
(4) Praps Robin skipped copying the 6 frames koz the 6 were too blurry. This is unlikely, if true then why did Robin include his last frame UYB20 even tho this was very blurry.
Re (1), would the Museum hide frames that obviously showed the AR15?

Weissman in his report shows a small blowup of the 2019  91983 & 91985.
91984 (& all of the other even numbered frames) is only a repeat of 91983 so that the 12 fps Bronson film runs at 24 fps for modern viewers. But in some of the Museum's other Bronson films every second frame is duplicated, i think this is based on converting 16 fps to 24 fps (which is a mystery) (care needed).
Anyhow, the small blow-ups of 91983 & 91985 in the report are too blurry to show a head jerk i think.

Weissman says that Z305.0 equals 91973.0. If so, & if Z runs at 18.3 fps & B runs at 12 fps, & if Hickey fires at Z312.0, then Z312.0 corresponds to 91981.59.
We see Hickey with his bum back down on his hi-seat (sitting on 2 leather cases) holding his AR15 at 50 deg in  UYB09 (2017 copy of film) which is  91985 (2019 copy of film)(this part of 91985 is shown in Weissman's report).
So, Hickey has from 91981.59 to 91983 to 91985 to fall from his Ύ standing pozzy down to his ½ standing/sitting pozzy.
This is say 1.41 Bronson frames (the even numbers are only repeats), to fall down a half head vertically, plus fall back a small distance horizontally. Two Bronson frames is say 2/12ths of a second.
Not impossible.

He was only doing his job, it was rotten luck.

The Weissman report gifted us a low-res copy of frame 6 (of 26 frames) of the Museum's 2019 scan of the Bronson film. The Museum call frame 6 frame DPX91973 (which i call 91973 for short).
Before the Weissman report we had Robin Unger's 20 copies of the Museum's 2017 scan. Six of the 26 frames are missing, hence 20. So, 91973 is the same frame as Unger's frame 5 (which i call UYB05), koz Unger has somehow missed frame 2 of 26.
Here below is my scan of Weissman's 91973, which i have called 91973pdf (koz i got it by making a screenprint of each page of Weissman's pdf report).
As i said 91973pdf is not as good as 91973 (which the Museum will not make public).
Anyhow, for what it is worth, here below on the left is 91973pdf.

And on the right i show Robin Unger's frame UYB05A from his copy of the Museum's 2017 scan. He probly did screenprints from the Museum's 2017 youtube (the Museum deleted their youtube in 201?). Nowadays i think that we can if we like make krappy  screenprints from the Museum's krappy copy of the Bronson film seen on their website. I wish we had full access to the 26  2019 frames.

Nextly i will make a magnification of Hickey in 91973pdf & compare it to a magnification of Hickey in (the poorer quality) UYB05.
