It's never too early to start planning for the Anaheim 2025 Raffle. Are you a crafter? Can you make something firearms related for the raffle? If so, we'd love your donation. Ideas: Cartridge head earrings and cuff links, bullet bouquets, gun-shaped soap, challenge coin holders, 3D printed objects, quilts, stained glass, etched items, anything with the Anaheim logo on it, ect. If you're willing to make something, let me know. You can email me at afte2025raffles@gmail.com Thank you, Kirsten Wallace

Over the last 2 years, the evidence techs in our office have been trained in basic bullet exams where we are notating weights, est caliber, twist, amount of L&G, and rifling type. Most of them have struggled mainly with identifying the rifling types and do not feel fully comfortable identifying the rifling type since they sometimes feel as though they're guessing. Especially when it comes to the GEN5 Glocks that throw them off since they have railing but on a polygonal bullet. I'm currently trying to put together a quick guide/ PowerPoint for our office to help with this including what to look for and with close up photos.
With that being said doe anyone by chance have any material on these topics themselves they may be able to share related to bullet exams and or rifling types?
Thanks!

2024 - Swiss International Wound Ballistics Workshop
I am very happy to pass on the announcement for the twelfth annual Swiss Wound Ballistics Workshop. If this is an area of interest for you, I cannot recommend it enough. This year's line up has some familiar and highly experienced faces, and the information conveyed is of the highest caliber. These include Beat Kneubuehl, Fabiano Riva, Matt Glardon, and our very own Axel Manthei. Docs attached. You should go, and don't forget to add on some extra time to enjoy Switzerland!
-----
This three day workshop discusses the theoretical and practical aspects of wound ballistics; the discussions are led by various experts. There are also live demonstrations, under laboratory conditions, of a variety of projectiles being shot into internationally accepted tissue simulants (no animals are used). The Workshop is designed to give an essential understanding of the subject, mainly to the following professions:
Health professionals, especially trauma surgeons;

Hello,
Does anybody know of where the Browning A Bolt is manufactured? From research most look to be made in Japan, however, the one we received does not say made in Japan anywhere so am wondering if there are any that are made elsewhere?
Also asking if anyone has advice on any ways to adjust the search in e-trace when an "invalid" result comes back?
Thanks!
Malory
