Read somewhere in an book that sometimes soldiers/aides tried to hurt/kill their officers my minimally reducing their barrel width mechanically when cleaning their pistols for them. Hard to detect and can fuck someone up good.

But while I can see how that would work in theory I don't see how this could be done without someone noticing it and with the tools at their disposal.
