really off topic
My wife likes to subscribe to Alfred Hitchcock/Ellery Queen magazines. I've read some funky stuff about guns in them, but this latest is something I've never before seen.
In one of the stories I read recently a couple of detectives were putting on a public program for writers and they pooh-poohed the idea of using a pencil down the barrel to pick up a pistol, preserving the fingerprints. Seems they thought it would mar the barrel and make testing bullets for matches impossible.
Guess all the muzzleloader shooters better discard their wooden ramrods before they damage the bores.
