Had my hands tested for explosives

I was in California for work this week. On my return trip I was told that new security measures were being implemented at which point they swabbed my hands to test for explosives. I don't have a problem with that, as long as I don't get delayed if hey detect a little gun powder.

Gunpowder and explosives have very different residue - I had that type of test a few years back after coming pretty much straight off the range, no issue.

Well that's good to know.
