 My first challenge!
This is the rifling in a Glock 17 barrel. It is illuminated by a small LED torch in the breech. The image was cropped slightly and resized but is otherwise unedited.

Yes, I can see the rifling of a gun barrel here. It meets the challenge well. I not sure if the soft focus is doing it any favors though.
