Mr. Rankin. Did he go to the rifle club there?
Mrs. Oswald. He belonged to a hunters—a club of hunters and had a rifle but he never went to the practice meetings of this club. He only paid his membership dues, and I think that he joined this club in order to be able to acquire a rifle because only apparently members of such hunting clubs have the right in the Soviet Union to own a rifle. Only once did he go out with a group of some of my friends and take his rifle and try and shoot some game but he didn't catch anything.
Representative Ford. Did he buy the rifle or was it given to him?
Mrs. Oswald. He bought it.
Representative Ford. What did you do with it when you went to the United States?
Mrs. Oswald. I think he sold it.
Representative Ford. Was it a rifle of—much like the one that was used in the assassination?
Mrs. Oswald. All rifles look alike to me.
Mr. McKenzie. Did it have a telescopic sight on it, Marina?
Mrs. Oswald. No.
