Was the Rifle that Lt. Day carried out of the TSBD the same as in evidence?

[Mitch Todd]

MT--Thanks for clue-ing us in. I was wondering about some of the images.

The narrative that a 7.65 Mauser was found on TSBD6, and then replaced by an M-C rifle, which was photographed carried by Lt. Day to DPD, and then another M-C rifle was subbed in, and entered as evidence...stretches credulity.

This pointless falsification of evidence operation would have required several witting participants, all of whom kept their silence forever after.

If evidence was being falsified in the JFKA, why not say LHO ordered a Mauser 7.65 and be done with it?

I agree that shooting JFK with one rifle, then going to an immense amount of trouble to try and cover tracks by planting a completely different rifle chambered in a completely different caliber made by a completely different manufacturer makes no sense whatsoever.

As has been proved time and time again, the evil, evil Deep State is capable of anything!!!

But the "CAL" and "Made Italy" markings are in dark black letters.

Seriously, I already showed you, Joseph inverted the image. He linked to the original WC image in his article and it's clear that he used an artificially enhanced negative misrepresentation.



And as Mark Ulrik has rightfully suggested the specular highlighting has obliterated this lettering.

If you want to convince us that the lighting would have no effect then replicate the original photo but until then the ridiculous theory that "they" found a Carcano then swapped this Carcano for another Carcano and then swapped the substituted Carcano for the original Carcano which is now in the archives must be a stretch even for you.

Mr. FITHIAN. Mr. McCamy, can you give us any measurement or photogrammetric process or anything that you did to further nail down this I think vital question.
Mr. McCAMY. Yes. We made measurements, measurements on the rifle, and on the photographs to ascertain that indeed this particular chip was in the right place.
Beyond that, however, I went to the Archives and made 21 photographs of the rifle using a variety of different kinds of illumination. On those photographs, it was possible to see a large number of nicks, scratches and so on, distinguishing marks.
I then went back through all of the photographs I had mentioned to you. In many instances--I believe in 56 different instances--I was able to find markings that appear on this rifle that were on the photographs that were made back there on the day of the assassination.
So, we are very confident that this is indeed the rifle that was carried from the book depository--oh, incidentally, I can carry it farther than that.
I found distinguishing marks of this rifle on a motion picture that was made at the time the police officer picked the rifle up off of the floor of the book depository. So that I think is very convincing evidence that it is the rifle.

Good stuff. I wish better quality Alyea footage were available.
