Allot of what you see on tv about guns is propoganda. But remember make and model are able to be picked up. The individual characteristics of each gun would only be shown if 1. The gun was not cleaned after firing the round in question. 2. The gun has not been fired a significant number of times since the round was obtained. As the rifleing will change over time.In court when they convict criminals there is other evidence that is more pertinant. If a suspect has a firearms same make and model that killed the victim, and there is other evidence then this circumstantial evidence means more.If you have shell casings, spent sabots, rounds and the gun in question you would have enough to piece together the puzzle.I mentioned the book Unintended Concequenses as it goes into detail about this aspect.Most low life criminals don't take showers let alone clean thier guns <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />-S</blockquote>
