Inexplicable Wounds made by Special Bullets

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.

Totally agree with Peter. I can't believe anyone can seriously advocate this nonsense. The best sharpshooters were employed with the best weaponry.

Hi Dawn

You clearly have the same misconceptions and misunderstandings about rifles and ballistics that Mr. Lemkin does. Stick around and I will show you how it was entirely possible JFK was shot with Carcano rifles.

P.S. As I said earlier, if you believe all Carcano rifles were junk, please tell me what it is about them that makes them junk.
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.
