Many interested parties on both sides of the debate often comment that "better" rifles were available ,But the main reason for settling on the Carcano was financially driven "Ossie was broke" .Not so according to C. A. Hamblen the night manager of the Western Union in Dallas according top Mr Hamblen
"Oswald" had recieved small cash amounts leading up to the assassination "10 maybe 20 dollars at a time .So there was really no need to economise
he could have shot the pres with a better class of rifle if he wanted.I can only assume he was "savin for Junes shoes".

He didn't buy what some marketing guy would have liked to sell him. This way of life was a point of pride for Oz - is this really so hard to understand?

Was there a cheaper spy camera? Are we sure the Minox was his? Look at Oz's life. He took pride in living with modest thing and thinking large thoughts.

He was receiving money ($200.00 or more a month) from the FBI, so the story of him being broke is not correct.
The smart thing to do would have been to use a weapon he was more familiar with, and way better overall, like the M-1.
He would have NO need to work a bolt then.

Can you please show me where he purchased the ammo and the clip for the rifle? I have not seen any evidence for these vital things yet, but as you said he needed to "get the job done". Thanks!

I have no idea where he got the ammo and clip. It's obvious that he got them somehow because as you say, he needed them to get the job done. Knowing where he bought them would be nice but not knowing doesn't really mean anything. Surely this is obvious.
