I agree to that. But, I was trying to be polite. Believe me, I could put more holes in the scenario than a screen door, but then this is a game too...
Now, some possible changes...
The assassin brings the weapon in with him, disassembled and made of materials that the guards inspecting his tools and gear wouldn't think are parts of a gun. The three rounds of ammunition (or 5 or whatever) are carefully concealed to avoid known methods being used for detection.
An alternate is the weapon is sent in in pieces by very small robots that home on a known signal to one of the empty cells moving through the sewer drain system and emerging from say, the cell's toilet (at least with current plumbing code this would be a 3 or 4" diameter pipe). Something a bit more sophisticated than GPS would easily allow these to maneuver to the right location.
After use, the assassin simply disassembles the gun, tosses / puts it in an adjacent cell and the same robots move it back out of the facility to say a septic tank or treatment plant never to be recovered.
Getting in is the hard part. I can't see a prison, particularly a high security one, using nothing but card entry into areas. The keying system would be broken up. One reason for this is if a prisoner gets a key card, they have access to every door with the system described. Unacceptable. Instead, the keying would be broken up. So, to get in you need to get through whoever lets people in and out. Inside, you have access to certain areas based on what you do. To get into the cell block with this prisoner there is going to be more than one guard on duty, even if there's only one supervising the cells in the immediate vicinity of this prisoner.
There is likely a dual system requiring you to go through a "sally port" that the guards on the cell block have a single key for one door and somebody outside the block has the key for the other. That's common to all prisons even today.
Once inside, the cell may be behind one or more additional keyed doors that this person may or may not (likely not) has the ability to operate. A two person or multi person system ensures nobody... staff or prisoner... can get in or out of the facility or have free run of it on a single key.
Getting out is just as hard. The assassin needs to go back through all those doors and such needing people to open and operate them.
I'd say it'd be easier to do an inside job. You have another prisoner that has access to the right area, say an orderly that cleans the cell block. The little robots send in the parts of the weapon and other stuff necessary. The prisoner is paid a grunch to do it or has an other reason to do the hit. He recovers the weapon and such then does the hit. In fact, some prisoners in a gang might even be proud to do it gaining prestige in their gang, maybe financial gain for their family, and the like.
If those wanting this guy dead have the cash that'd be better than the scenario proposed.
