TS,
Unless I misread it, the reference to the barrel unscrewing on pg. 112 is in the end of the report of a gun (unidentified) that precedes the testing of the S&W. The notes specifically say that the TL barrel was pinned.
A more important question to me is listed on pg. 113, paragraph c. when it reports that they fired "5 rounds by mistake"! WTH does that mean?? Glad I wasn't on the range that day!
