Hello, to you all.
New in the forum, I´m a Forensic Sciences PhD Student from Portugal, with a Law degree and 10 years experience in sport shooting (IPSC, also R.O. with IROA Level I and II Seminars)
Did the Forensic Ballistic Investigation course in Cranfield University, U.K. in 2011.
I´m doing some research in GSR´s and I would like to work in my thesis with silencers, can anyone give me some "lights", please?
I´ve read some articles stating that it was not possible to find GSR´s in the victim clothes when shooting a 9x19mm pistol with a silencer at close range.
I find it hard to believe, because I could identify and quantify GSR´s in a t-shirt that was strike by 3 shots fired from a suppressed Walther P22 using ICP-MS.
Any help, please?!
Thank you for your time.
Best regards
Luís M. Fernandes
