I had a dream. It was an incredible dream. When I awoke, I had a huge mess to clean up.

Actually it isn't that easy to pull useful prints off a weapon you've been firing. Only about one in ten discharged weapons will have a usable print left on it.


When you discharge the weapon the vibration ruins every single print you're leaving. It's handling the weapon after firing it that leaves usable prints. The grips tend to be the best place to find usable prints, and they tend to have textured or striated surfaces that prevent you from leaving prints in the first place. Proper weapon handling (ie, finger off the trigger unless you're actually shooting) doesn't leave much on the trigger to work with either.


This bit of useless trivia brought to you by the number 9, and the letter M.

If Koneg were a serial killer, he'd definitely be the kind who sends letters to the press. "Actually, that is NOT how I murdered them, and to think so is not only asinine, it's frankly insulting."
