[begin excerpt]

According to Klein's shipping order form, one Italian carbine 
6.5 X-4 x scope, control number VC836, serial number C2766, 
was shipped parcel post to "A. Hidell, P.O. Box 2915, Dallas, 
Texas," on March 20, 1963. Information received from the 
Italian Armed Forces Intelligence Service has established 
that this particular rifle was the only rifle of its type 
bearing serial number C2766. (See app. X, p. 554.) The post 
office box to which the rifle was shipped was rented to "Lee 
H. Oswald" from October 9, 1962, to May 14, 1963.
