And, there's a good chance you won't. And, if you do, it won't be the gun that killed Kirk.
Mausers have also been customised for a very long time, a customized take-down variation is not that hard to do.
A stretch limo is also doable. But, I doubt you'll see a college student driving one to school.
That guy ran across that roof like a rabbit. He wasn't carrying a 42" to 48" gun weighing 9 or 10 pounds in his pants or his backpack. At two places in the video, I think I can see him holding a 14" to 16" barrel AR or M4 by the pistol grip. If they found an old bolt-action Mauser in the woods, it was planted there.
Also, they say they found the single fired round still in the chamber. From all of my MANY years shooting bolt-action rifles, the next sub-conscious move I make after pulling the trigger is to grab the bolt and chamber a fresh round in case I missed my target with the first, and/or I needed a backup shot. So, I guess that blows the "experienced" sniper theory.
The powers-that-be are playing the masses like a fiddle, and it's working. I wonder why Patel was strangely silent during the "press conference?" He knows something, and he's not talking, or he's not happy with it.
“I think I can see him holding a 14” to 16” barrel AR or M4.”
Yes it was a shorter rifle. But there were “tanker” model Mausers made in 30-06. I have one distributed by Mitchell Manufacturing and they are real short, about the same as an AR.
But like you guys point out. I have yet to see a picture of the rifle they found.
