suicidal injuries are also prevelent. In India, all the fatal cases of firearm
injuries are brought for medicolegal autopsy. In most of the set up for

wounds in 80 riffled firearm‐ related fatalities was done to elucidated if
ferences in size, shape, margin characteristics and associated features.
Total 180 entry wounds and 110 exit wounds were examined and results
were summarized. This study will help per forming autopsy surgeons and
trainees to identify and differentiate gun shot wounds and also aim to
support them in crime scene reconstruction and inform the development
of ballistic analysis protocols.}
