John, would you care to address my response to your#8 reply?

The ad shows the weight of the rifle, when shipped. What Oswald did with it later is not the subject at hand.
CE 2562 shows the weight of 100 rifles, and carton, on their way to Klein's. Long before C2766 ( allegedly) reaches Oswald.

Immaterial.

Incidentally, what is the premise of your poorly worded Subject?

My apologies for "poor wording".

No premise. Just facts.

The carton and rifles weighed 750 lbs. The 40" rifle weighed 7.5 lbs, in the ad provided by Mr. Organ.

100 x 7.5 = 750. Plus weight of carton.

CE 2562 is quite informative.

The ad shows the weight of the rifle to be 7 lbs.

100 x 7 = 700

Historically the Carcano M91/38 "Short Rifle" variant averages about 7.5 ibs.

Scroll right. 40" Carcano, model 91/38. 7.5 lbs.

That's not Klein's ad. Klein's advertised the 40 inch rifle as weighing only 7 lbs.

100 x 7 = 700

Perhaps Mr. Organ could give us his source for the post showing Carcano at 7.5 lbs?
Thanks.

He's not answering my questions, as well. His mind is made up; the rifles can only be TS-type and the shipping container has to be wood.

I think if you open your eyes.... The weight on the BOL is TARE weight..... Tare weight is the weight of the freight,minus the weight of the shipping container.

Could be true.
However, all CE2562 show's is 750lbs. Lifschutz Fast Freight.
I would love more documentation, if possible.

Thanks.
