Abstract:

In the specialized forensic medical literature there is no data that allow to reliably and objectively confirm application «Paradox» or «Lancaster» boring firearms to cause injury. This study analyzes the literature in order to determine the possibility of diagnosing these types of weapon’s barrel boring by the morphology of injury. The results of the analysis demonstrate a high probability of barrel boring type distinctive features existing. In addition, has been found the opportunity to determine the type of bullet in the cartridge used to damage. Concluded that it is necessary to do an additional experimental research of the specified conditions for causing firearm injuries.
