A Quick Question...

[island emt]

did have a fellow that stuck the barrel of a .410 up under his neck just below the ear and pulled the trigger.

very small entry hole and no blood exit. Did bulge his eyes a slight bit.

Yeah, I've had that one guy too, put a bunch of birdshot in his brain and nasal cavities. Not nearly a lick of blood anywhere.

Or the guy who get's killed by "the mafia" with a .22 cal bullet to the base of the skull and all you have is an entrance wound with no exit but someone just as dead.

Yeah, but those weren't GSWs to the chest. The OP wants to know about chest wounds.

I would like to know why the OP is asking such a question. Seems like an odd question to me. Especially since this is his first and only post.

I do have an answer, but first I want to know why it is important to him. What exactly is he researching it for?

I already asked the question, but he/she hasn't returned.
