I hate to be a stick in the mud but, the rifle in the backyard photo is, without a doubt, either a 6.5mm M91/38 short rifle or a 7.35mm M38 short rifle. The giveaway is the metal cap/bayonet mount at the tip of the forestock. It is unique to the short rifle, and can be seen in both photos above. Also, if one looks closely at the backyard photos, one can see the groove in the forestock of this rifle. This feature is also unique to the short rifle.
Mr. HILL. The right rear portion of his head was missing. It was lying in the rear seat of the car. His brain was exposed. There was blood and bits of brain all over the entire rear portion of the car. Mrs. Kennedy was completely covered with blood. There was so much blood you could not tell if there had been any other wound or not, except for the one large gaping wound in the right rear portion of the head.
