Abstract
Atypical gunshot wounds due to ricochet and intermediate targets have been well described in the literature. We represent a case of suicide with an atypical entrance wound and bullet without rifling marks due to 9 mm ammunition being loaded and fired from a 40 caliber semiautomatic pistol.

Keywords:
ammunition, caliber, forensic science, gunshot wound, gunshot wounds, rifling
