This was obviously well planned in advance, including the getaway. That isn’t your normal nut case.

With advance planning, I’m pretty sure you can configure a Mauser to have quick disassembly - and put it in a bag as seen in the video when he jumps down from the roof. That’s a rifle bag, in my opinion, carrying both the barrel and stock. It is well within the range of possibilities.

I really think they will never find him, unless they pick up a DNA sample from anything. Otherwise- I’m going to say- it was a clean getaway. Maybe just because of Epstein files, or Israel /Gaza, . Who knows.

Couple of screws, that simple. And you could probably set it up with quick release if you wanted. So, what do you think? Silent Type Friday #18
