As a bullet travels through a gun barrel, it is gripped by —spiral grooves machined into the metal to make the projectile spin for stability.
: The pin strikes the primer at the back of the casing, leaving a unique indentation.
: Microscopic flaws in the manufacturing process or wear and tear from use create a "signature" unique to that specific barrel. 2. Impression Marks (on the casing)
: The hooks and pins that pull the spent casing out and toss it away leave distinct scratches on the rim. The Technology of Tracking
