| Thanks for the explanation. I didn't pick up on that meaning but it makes perfect sense now. |

The handgun here is a Glock 22 (.40 S&W caliber). I put a small light in the chamber to illuminate the inside of the barrel.
From what information I can gather, this is indeed polygonal rifling (look at //www.firearmsid.com/A_bulletIDrifling.htm ). You can actually see that there is a very gradual transition between the lands and grooves in the barrel.

If it's polygonal that means it's HK, not the Glock that most of us were thinking. The reflections make it hard to tell. |

| Ok, I will give you benefit of the doubt here, because it is a good centered shot, clarity and sharpness are there. But for those of us that have lost some to suicide its really a hurtful and painful shot. To think that Suicide was put off last year is quite disturbing. It IS a powerful image I will give you that, but at the same time I guess I don't understand how it was brought into the procrastination challenge. I surely hope there is nothing TOO deep about this shot to you, as in its something you've contemplated. Maybe I looked to deep into this shot, but like I said I recently lost someone to suicide so you can see where I am coming from. Good luck in the challenge. 7. |

| Took me a while to figure out what it is - turning the gun sideways a bit would help. |

| I guess you mean that we committ gradual suicide each day until we finally reach the end?? Or if you mean you literally put off suicide in 2006 then ???? Either way, you've captured the lighting nicely although a stark white BG would have been an improvment IMHO. |

| I have no idea what that is. Whatever it is isn't attractive to me nor is the all the white space and composition. |

| That looks like a glock, very well done - what did you do in the inside of the barrel? |

| I like the reflection you got on the riflings. (Unrelated: Never liked Glocks that much, though.) |
