and several mechanical experts, who
had been especially invited to witness
the test.
No one was permitted to inspect the
gun, which was completely hidden by

around 1t In a corner Of the loft. Not
even tho muzzle OF the weapon could
be seen Through a hole In the case

does not require explosives OF any
