Thank you for purchasing the HOT*SHOT.
The HOT*SHOT is used by many different Law Enforcement agencies within the States, Federal, and Foreign Governments. It has proven to be an extremely valuable tool to help verify the shot metal in a shotgun shell. Its success is based on Game Officers "word of mouth".
The HOT*SHOT device should only be used as a tool to aid and augment existing practices in verifying the shot metal in a shot gun shell. We cannot recommend that the HOT*SHOT be relied on solely for determining the contents of a shell - this includes issuing citations and/or arrests based on the readings it produces. Should the results of the HOT*SHOT be questioned or challenged by any individual, we recommend that the shell be sent to a forensic lab for further analysis and verification. These facilities have very expensive equipment that can verify the findings of the HOT*SHOT.
The HOT*SHOT has been extensively tested by Stream Systems and its accuracy verified by many different Government agencies. This alone does not guarantee that every shell ever manufactured or to be manufactured will read correctly.
