Chin said "this is for you Frank" and then shot him.

I'm going to have to come back to this forum more regularly to give you guys some more Cosa Nostra history lessons.


Neo,it just seems strange to me that Gigante instead of waiting Costello and shooting him in the head or riddling him with bullets,just called him and shot and missed him,Gigante for sure killed someone before and seem strange that failed the hit,especially if wanted that his mentor could become the new boss.


There is no evidence to suggest that Chin participated in any hits prior to the Costello hit.

You're looking at Gigante as some sort of amazing ex-Special Forces hitman that couldn't possibly fuck things up, but in reality he was a 29 year old up-and-coming mobster chosen by Vito because Vito probably trusted him the most. Also lets not forget that Vito was a dumbass, a hit this important required an experienced hitman, a back up shooter and a getaway driver, but Vito simply sent one guy....his favorite protege.
