Forging, it used to be the majority of iron and steel parts of firearms. Casting, it used to handle
the small parts or complicated things of firearms. Stampings, this parts is usually use as support
in the parts of fire arms like triggers guard, parts of sight and others that would be support.
Machining , This is process that uses machine tools to finish parts that were made using forging
and casting processes. Rifling is also made by machining processes. Woodworking, used to
shape stocks for firearms from raw wooden blanks. In modern days, stocks are also built of
other materials, so this is no longer as important as some of the other process. Metal
Treatment, this procedure is all about applying protective coating various components like rust
proofing, heat treatment hardening certain components etc. all fall under this category.
Assembly, taking all the components and putting them together to build the fire arm.
Testing , lastly, the testing so the manufacture need to know if their items would work properly
and to avoid accidents situation or anything that can endure when they are using their items.
I can’t pretty make a good summary or making a conclusion about of the topic so I put it on
here and copy paste where the answer that I’ve found in the internet I can’t basically

This Principles governing Firearms examination base on my research these principle of firearms
examination It can lead to identify and solve the problems about what type of gun or what kind of gun
that would be used in a crime based on my understanding about examination of a firearms in a crime
situation they gathered the Cartridges cases or a bullets to know what exactly gun that would be used at
the crime through this items they can easily track the type of gun by using laboratory equipment like
bullet comparison Microscope and there’s so many equipment are really helpful for finding the solutions
about identifying the guns and based on what characteristics of it. And here is the information that I
read and put here and also I’m not basically put it all here so if you want read it also then here’s the link
below
While comparisons of bullets and cartridge cases to specific firearms are the most common
examinations requested, other examinations are possible such as: distance determinations based on
powder residue or shot spread; examination of firearms for functioning or modification; sequence of
shots fired and trajectories; list of possible weapons used; serial number restoration and ownership
tracing. Evidence of firing or handling a firearm may be detected through the analysis of gunshot residue
collected from a person hands or other body surfaces.
