Axel:
All good points and I guess Kapitän Hicks could have picked up any ole gun case & scope case and probability was with him that day and all the accouterments, including the 2 initialed scope cases, and the DR, dropped right in the Barella case. I really don't think that it was happenstance that Kapitän Kicks went to a weapons garage sale in Austria, purchasing all items independently and The weapons, accouterments, etc. not have some prior association. But when did someone take a piece of gold sidewalk chalk and rub in R.G. Owen on the top rib?

Kind Regards,
