Fine in fine jacket. First printing. Fine, fresh copy in equally fine dust jacket. Hardcover. 260 pp. with glossary, index. Illustrated with photos and charts. One of the most sought after books in its field, an indepth examination of forensic work with firearms and ballistics. In cases involving the use, or suspected use, of a firearm, every aspect of that firearm and/or ammunition, has strong evidentia value--but what to look for, what evidence found actually means and how compeling that evidence is can involve very technical elements. In this work the author questions such as: from distance was the weapon fired? is there any trace evidence that proves the accused handled the weapon? do the marks on a particular bullet prove it was fired from a specific weapon? what information on the origin of a bullet be gleaned from the headstamp markings? is it posible for an erased serial number to be restored? and more.
