Abstract
Introduction. Currently, cases of illegal use of homemade firearms are increasingly common in expert practice. When examining the scene of the incident, experts seize bullets and shells fired from homemade pistols and revolvers. While examining them, databases of traces are created. Possible reasons for the difference in the identification period of homemade firearms from factory ones are discussed. Experiment. To establish the identification period in homemade firearms, experiments were carried out, during which a significant difference was found between the identification period of homemade firearms and factory-made firearms. Discussion of the results. When studying the dependence of maintaining the individualizing complex of features unchanged in traces on bullets and cartridge cases, it was revealed that the identification period of homemade firearms is much shorter than that of factory-made firearms, which must be taken into account in expert practice.
