Maybe not, but the tools used to remove the barrel/s can be traced by teeth marks and other metal to metal contact.
So the moral of the story is...
If you want to destroy the potential barrel you'll need to:
- Have replacement barrels purchased in a non-traceable manner.
Why? There are many reasons to have spare barrels. Think "Squib load".
- Have some mechanism to brush or scratch the inside of the barrel, - Apply a corrosive and allow it to thin the barrel significantly. - Then twist barrel and heat until red hot. - Then handle with non-metallic tools only until discarded.
Nonsense. The forensic tests on bullets/firearms are based on percentage matches. You simply need to change *slightly* the "finger print" of the barrel and firing pin. -- A quote from Petro's Archives: ********************************************** "Despite almost every experience I've ever had with federal authority, I keep imagining its competence."
