There are numerous makes of weapons that do not require tools to change the barrel. Glock pistol barrels can be changed in about 20 seconds with no tools, Desert Eagle pistol barrels in about 5 seconds, and Winchester 1300 shotgun barrels in about 30 seconds. If you want to sanitize a non-removable barrel, fire-lap it. This involves firing bullets embedded with successively finer abrasive grits down the barrel, which also increases accuracy and reduces fouling. Bead blasting, careful sanding, or replacement of the firing pin ejector, and extractor will sanitize marks made on the cartridge case, or better yet, attach a bag to either the gun or your firing hand to catch ejected empties before they get left behind as evidence. -----Original Message----- From: Russ K [mailto:rkeni@cyou.com] Sent: Wednesday, December 06, 2000 12:42 PM To: cypherpunks@einstein.ssz.com Subject: Re: CDR: Re: Data Logs -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 On Wednesday 06 December 2000 11:11, David Honig wrote:

Extra barrels are not so expensive or hard to obtain that the pro can't afford to treat them as disposable.
Maybe not, but the tools used to remove the barrel/s can be traced by teeth marks and other metal to metal contact. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE6LqSDaffsYFTAgB4RAlllAKCG8POLyvUdk0AaBvjTy0buyuJRSQCgoHP1 FfWTTSrHYz+2+r1S8iWy5fg= =ZGnz -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
