Hidell supposedly ordered C20-T750 a 36"...a 40" version was supposedly sent/received by someone. You knew perfectly well what I meant. This theory that you have about some gun case being improperly made by Oswald-- displays a fantastic gaslight obsession beyond description. Quit playing gotcha. It ain't working.
Oswald would show up at work with a full length rifle!

There's absolutely no doubt that Oswald's alias was Alec Hidell and if the Naughty People who were going to manufacture and plant evidence, surely they would have used Oswald's real name, only a criminal would use an alias.
In Oswald's possessions he even had the template for this deception.
In New Orleans, Hidell was entitled to receive mail yet the Dallas same section was never found but it follows that Oswald would peruse similar behaviour and would add Hidell to the Dallas application. Anyway if you can produce the applicable Dallas post office section then please do but don't speculate because I've already given a perfectly plausible explanation of why it should be there.
Oswald ordered C20-T750, and besides the Kleins department number 358 which is used for distinguishing magazine sales, there is NO differentiation between a 36 inch and 40 inch Carcano rifle because there was no need, since all the 36 and 40 inch Carcano's were singularly advertised as C20-T750.
Quit playing gotcha.
I'm not playing!
It ain't working.
You bit pretty hard, so I think whatever you think I'm doing is working quite well! Muhahaha.

Breaking down the rifle only removed 4 inches and wouldn't be worth the effort but if Oswald out of necessity had to change his plans on the fly, then breaking down the rifle would be the perfect solution. And consider if the Police or whoever wanted to make a rifle carry bag to stitch up Oswald, then wouldn't they just make the bag simply fit the full rifle?
