Inexplicable Wounds made by Special Bullets

[Peter Lemkin]

There is a great possibility the bullets were all fired from 6.5mm Carcanos, though not necessarily M91/38 short rifles, and that the bullets were all of the same design. This is what has taken so long to figure out.

There is also a possibility the 6.5mm Carcano cartridges were made in Italy and were as little as one year old.

Why in the World would professional sharpshooters/mechanics/hit-men use such an old, inaccurate, even noisy rifle - and the crummy bullets that fit it...makes NO sense at all. One rifle was perhaps one of them [not in Oswald's hands!] - but more likely a more modern and sophisticated rifle or weapon that could fire 'Carcano' rounds using a sabot, or also of the same caliber or re-bored to be. This was a high-tech crossfire assassination - only the best of everything was used. I find it absurd that M-C's were used. That wasn't even the first or second gun found in the TSBD...but the third, likely planted, one.
