Re: How to Permanently Destroy a Firearm

A lot of over thinking going on here. Seems like nothing a 10 minute and a sledge hammer couldn't take care of. :iagree: 10 minutes in some coals and one smack with a hammer and it's all over but the crying :cryin As a side note; My brother committed suicide.
