Just one question, how does someone who says he saw the gun at a glance and thought it was a Mauser, therefore, he felt the need to correct himself in an interview when at a glance, he was able to correctly identify a 7.65 "bolt action" with a 4/18 scope, and a thick leather brownish-black sling on it. You mean to tell me that without observing the rifle up close and personal until Captain Fritz took control of the gun he didn't know what it was? And, because he was among the first to discover the gun, he was told by someone he only observed the gun at a glance? Therefore, he was told he needed to change his story because that's what the FBI lab told him, it was a Carcano, and probably repeated, "it was a Carcano" over and over so many times that he began to think he may had made a mistake?... I smell bullshit!

I'll go with his first ID of the rifle...
