This module describes items common to all forensic scientists, and items unique to the firearm/toolmark examiner. The critical tools necessary for firearm/toolmark identification include the comparison microscope, appropriate facilities, specialized tools, equipment, instruments, and supplies.

Each laboratory will also have a unique configuration of computer systems and software for technical and administrative purposes. Students should take the initiative to learn the systems that are new to them.
