Abstract

This comprehensive paper aims to act as a collective resource for all those with an interest in firearms manufacturing processes, including firearms examiners, armourers, historians and reference collection managers. The primary focus of this article is 9 x 19 mm semi-automatic (self-loading) pistols. The content of this paper details the factory fitted barrel manufacturing methods for a wide range of pistol manufacturers and some aftermarket barrels. It also provides information relating to individual contacts within these manufacturing companies and current sources of knowledge for manufacturers who are no longer in business. © 2017, Association of Firearm and Tool Mark Examiners.
