I talked with these guys At SHOT due to insane laws in some states that required firearms to be destroyed.
This company has made a business at least the parts are getting on the market.
Under the false notion of removing firearms in the public.
It is far more the idea then the practical as far more firearms are made every day then are destroyed.
The anti's have to promote the idea that it is the firearm that is bad not the person using it.
The same notion as so called buy back programs.
Both are untter nosense.

I disagree! I like having all the available parts for some guns. I wouldn't mind having both full locks and the fore-end as back ups for my cheap SxS hammergun. But it'd have to be like cars, where the price for the whole wrecked car is 40% of the price of all the individual parts.
