  1. Interesting, though let's note that the dog is smelling either the gun oil or the powder, not the metal.

    1. The expert in the video said it did not matter if the gun was oiled, or not the dog would still detect it. Are you an expert dog trainer? You fefute what he said.

    2. Metal doesn't have a distinctive smell, especially since other metal objects are permitted.

    3. Again, the expert said whether, or not the gun was oiled. Your comment goes against what the expert said.

    4. Anonymous, the fact that someone is identified as an expert does not excuse you from using critical thinking.

    5. And you, of course, know better than the expert. Laughable, but no surprise coming from the sites criminal lying coward.

  2. I wonder if the kids will do what kids do and try to spoof the dog. Just walk around and put a dab of Hoppes #9 on this locker or that. Or of course, there are the kids who go shooting with parents who's clothing will likely trigger a response from powder residue.
    Not saying the dog thing is bad, its a tool, and like any tool, it wont be 100%

  3. Has anyone here been subject to having your hands swabbed for explosive residue at the airport? I was on a flight out of Lansing, MI and I was randomly stopped before going through security and had my hands checked. I am not sure what would have happened if it came back positive. It is not illegal to handle explosives before going to the airport is it?

    1. I actually had it done to me at the airport just after 9/11. I was enroute to Idaho for training to qualify on the M1 Abrams system. I had my crewman's uniform and equipment in my carry-on. They swabbed boots, hands, and carry-on. Perhaps me being in uniform made any results moot, I never saw any indication of how the test came back.
