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.
Not wanting to offend you John... but: How does this theory affect the guilt or innocence of Lee Harvey Oswald--the assassin?Are you suggesting this "weights and measures" debate proves there is something suspicious about the "history" of the Carcano rifle C 2766?The TOPIC is so brief and vague that only JFK Assassination aficionados would be inclined to proceed to read it. Why not something like this instead: Rankin letter (CE 2562) ~ Carcano (C 2766) history (Crescent to Kleins) is faked
I do believe this site is peopled by JFK Assassination afficionados? Last time I checked?CE 2562 seems quite real.And informative. Would like to see D171, the bill of lading. Checking into locating it. Any help appreciated.Thanks.
Do you agree that the TOPIC could be more descriptive?That aside: Do you consider there is some sinister irregularity in the shipment from Crescent Firearms (NYC) to Kleins Sporting Goods (Chicago) of one-hundred (100) Carcano rifles? The shipment being the one that contained C 2766--the Oswald assassination weapon.

Thanks. But that's a Crescent document. Which says "weight subject to correction". Would appreciate seeing Lifschutz Fast Freight bill of lading.
