When a firearm is discharged, the highest concentration of gunshot residue (GSR) is located on a shooter's hands, forearms, and clothing. Currently, collecting GSR from an individual's hands is accomplished with a carbon disk that is submitted for confirmatory analysis in a forensic laboratory. Presumptive chemical tests can be performed in the field, but these tests consume a portion of the GSR particles leaving a reduced amount of evidence available to be collected and sent to a forensic laboratory. An abundance of research exists for detecting GSR particles instantly on different fabrics using an alternate light source (ALS). This study expanded on that research and developed a noninvasive, visual examination to detect GSR on a suspected shooter's hands without destroying or removing any particles prior to collection. The hands of individuals who recently discharged a firearm were examined under a light source between 475 and 530 nm and an infrared (IR) camera. The fluorescent particles observed on a shooter's hands under 520 nm were similar in size and appearance to GSR particles observed on fabrics under an ALS. The fluorescent particles were collected and analyzed for GSR, and the results indicated that GSR particles were present. More testing needs to be conducted to determine if the fluorescent particles observed are inorganic or organic GSR particles. There is also potential to detect GSR under IR light; however, more research needs to be conducted to determine the composition of the particles observed after image enhancement.
