Author Topic: What happened to the Mauser? (Read 113860 times)

It's possible that a Mauser was in fact found in Truly's office and that may be the rifle that Seymour Weitman was asked to examine?? Perhaps the numbskull Fritz picked up the Mauser ( mistaking it for the Carcano) and asked Weitzman to examine that rifle to determine the mke and model of the rifle..... I would remind you that they didn't know what kind of rifle they had that afternoon... and they thought that Weitzman was an expert. So perhaps Fritz asked Weitzman to come to the PD and identify the rifle..... But the numbskull picked up the mausr by mistake and that's th rifl Weitzman examined....

Sorry, I meant Truly's office, or "at the PD" as you said here:

I'm merely attempting to find a rational reason that Weitzman examined a Mauser.....

There's not a shred of doubt in my mind that Weitzman was in fact describing a 7.65 Mauser for the FBI agent who filed the report which describes a Mauser in detail. ( Wonder why the serial number on that mauser was omitted??? )

Either someone ( Fritz? who was senile) or the FBI agent procured a Mauser ( from somewhere ??) and thought that it was the rifle that had been recovered from beneath the boxes of books.

I find it very strange that they had Weitzman examining a loaded rifle. Weitzman said that Fritz unloaded a live round from the Mauser when he came and reclaimed the rifle....

Again, Weitzman didn't "examine" any Mauser on 11.23. He is "describing" the rifle found on 11.22 which he mistakenly thought was a Mauser. I especially like the part in Walt's fantasy where Fritz unloads a live round from the Mauser. Walt can't make the connection even then that this relates to the rifle and events of 11.22. He thinks the exact same events of 11.22 were reoccurring on 11.23 like something out of "Groundhog Day." Very amusing. And this from the guy who thinks Fritz was senile! Comedy gold. Second only to his red circle fantasy.

Oh no, he is definitely NOT describing a Mannlicher Carcano..... Weitzman is definitely describing a 7.65 Mauser....

Why don't you post that FBI report and allow me to embarrass you because of your ignorance....
