@themarketswork is cited on this site for one widely recirculated early post: a shared USMC sniper-style ballistics analysis of the shot that killed Charlie Kirk. It is treated here as competing citizen analysis, not settled metrology.

- September 16, 2025 (~598 likes, ~276k views; still recirculated) — A USMC sniper analysis arguing the shot came from slightly behind Kirk's right side, was not a .30-06, and that an exit wound was visible — a reading that contradicts both the Losee-east rooftop geometry and the "no exit wound" strand at once (.30-06 did not kill Charlie).

- The same share appears in the site's wound-location catalog as part of the trajectory / exit-wound debate that followed the early "shot in the heart" eyewitness confusion (Shot in the Heart).
Investigative value
The post matters because it is internally inconsistent with both major camps — it disputes the official caliber and geometry while also disputing the no-exit claim most skeptics rely on. That makes it a useful reminder that early video-based ballistics readings diverge sharply and none substitutes for the sealed medical examiner file.
