Exposing the Phony Rifle Purchase of C2766

[David Josephs]

I have a question, do you know if the serial numbers off the rifle found at the TSBD are those that matched to Oswald's? It really wouldn't have been that hard to set up Oswald, even if A. Hidell's postal money order was never stamped as paid by the bank. That only indicates the plotters did NOT want that postal money order to reach the bank but why? Because the bank would have had to turn it over to the postmaster, and the postmaster would have declared the money order a forgery, which would have opened a whole new can of worms, so rather then the postal money order being declared a forgery it's better to prove that Oswald had an ID as the alias A. Hidell, who else knew he had that alias too?

It's not looking very good for those who believe Oswald acted alone.

Hey there Scott - Great question

Day had his secretary type of some info on the rifle which included:

DAY: On the gun itself, "6.5 caliber C-2766, 1940 made in Italy." That was what was on the gun. I dictated certain other stuff, other information, for her to type for me

I do have a HUGE image of Day carrying the rifle just outside the TSBD yet you cannot make out any writing on that part of the rifle... we need to use CE521

I know of no images of these markings prior to the rifle leaving Dallas.

I have not found an image that is not ruined by light reflection in the most key of locations.

Does anyone have another MC photo showing this "CAL. ? 5" area?

And "Made Italy" seems scratched in, not stamped on...
