He could have walked into a pawn shop any day and bought his weapon with cash.

The whole coupon deal and paying for shipping makes no sense.

(same goes for the rifle)

Ordering through mail was the cheapest way for him to get weapons.

Paperwork for the rifle and pistol are still a train wreck.

For Oswald and his defenders they are.

Where is the money order to Seaport Traders?

Not in the National Archives. Or did I miss it?

There was no money order to Seaport Traders.

Where is the COD receipt? Who filled it out, signed it and gave it and the gun to Oswald?

Not sure how Myers knows when the order was received at Seaport.

That's easy. Seaport created an invoice for Oswald's gun purchase on Mar. 13, '63. And I think it's safe to assume that Seaport didn't wait for weeks and weeks (or even days) before creating this paperwork:

Quoting Mr. Myers: Oswald's P.O. Box was at the Main Post Office in the Federal Building, 1114 Commerce Street, on the south side, seven blocks east of Houston at Murphy. Both locations were along bus routes easily accessible from Oswald's Neely Street address.
That is just simply not true. P.O. Box 2915 was located blocks away from 1114 Commerce [which BTW did not have a post office].
Bx 2915 was located at the Main Post Office 400 North Ervay Street....

I personally know all of this because I worked for the main post office and my father worked at the Fed Bldg at 1114 Commerce.
Besides all of this...Why would Oswald order the weapons in the name of A J Hidell when that post office box was so easily traceable to himself?
Is that in the Beyond Reasonable Doubt book?----That Oswald was a complete dumbass and deliberately incriminated himself ...leaving a trail that a blind man could follow?
