Shells, rifle, SN... Who?

[Mitch Todd]

Three sheriff’s deputies saying they saw a Mauser.

That's not evidence of two rifles, it's evidence of one. Who said that they found a Carcano and a Mauser? And which Sherrif's deputies are those?

Weitzman, Boone, and Craig. They all stated that they saw a Mauser. You’re convinced that the Alyea film shows a Carcano. That’s two rifles.

[Jack Trojan]

If I had a dollar for single every time I saw someone say that X was a Y, but it turned out to be something else, I'd be a filthy rich man. Weitzman was a guy whose expertise with rifles originates from his yearlong stint winding down a chain of discount stores. That's it. On the other hand, we have the Alyea film of Day removing the rifle and the news photos of it being taken from the TSBD.
Of what you wrote, the parts that aren't baseless assertions are just circular logic. "I'm claiming there was a conspiracy, and if there's any evidence against what I'm claiming then it's because The Conspiracy made it that way."

Now you're sounding like the LNer that you are. Alyea was the person who said Fritz staged the in situ photo of the hulls? So is he a liar too? Then why do you consider his film gospel? Oh right, the LNer thing and your denial of any evidence against it.

'Mauser' was in effect the generic term for all bolt-action rifles.

'Mauser' was in effect the generic term for all bolt-action rifles.

At least in the context of WC apologists defending their apology.

'Mauser' was in effect the generic term for all bolt-action rifles.

Sure it was. And “7.65 caliber” was a generic term for any caliber, and “5 shot clip which is locked on the underside of the receiver forward of the trigger guard” is a generic term for rifles that don’t have those things.

For once Chappie is right....   Many folks referred to any bolt action large caliber rifle as a "Mauser", which was a misnomer of course but it's true.   Many folks call any bottled soft drink a "coke"

Most people call a bottle of Coke a coke when it says coke on the side of the bottle.

"All of the 1891 Argentine Mauser rifles and carbines were manufactured in Berlin first at Ludwig Loewe & Company, and after 1896 at Deutsche Waffen und Munitionsfabriken Aktien-Gesellschaft (“DWM”)." 



(l.)" A 90-degree turndown bolt handle was standard on carbines. (ctr.) Graduated out to 2,000 meters, the rear sight also folds flat. (r.) Rollmarked from Berlin and shipped to Argentina, , the 1891 Mauser would also have the Argentine national crest on the front receiver band. Whether made by Loewe or DWM, the 1891 Argentine Mausers are beautifully made firearms well-known for their spectacular receiver markings. In addition to the model designation and the manufacturer information,"
