I know there is no groove in the stock matching the BYP rifle in a 91/41. Can you do a photo compare of a 91/41 with the backyard photo rifle the same way that others did a side-by-side compare with the 91/38? Oswald's rifle could be some kludged together assortment of surplus parts. 91/41 barrel on a 91/38 stock?
Sorry, Drew, but there is no doubt in my mind that the BYP rifle is either a 6.5mm M91/38 short rifle or a 7.35mm M38 short rifle. Think about it, if you were going to leave a short rifle on the 6th floor as "evidence", wouldn't you want to use the same rifle you used to make the BYP's with?
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.
