Sure could of used this thing in the first few days in Iraq, we had to either blow captured weapons caches in place, use WP or run them over with M1s.

I got to watch that machine in action on History Channel back in early 2002. It was kind of depressing to watch it in action........jmho

 this makes me sad who knows if this thing ate up a bunch of older weapons cause someone higher up didnt want them getting to people like us

 

It takes a lot to make a weapon unserviceable beyond repair by military standards.  Aside from nostalgic or historical value, I can't imagine any weapons going into that machine being of high enough quality to want to own.

Saw a pbs episode about a similar machine out in the Midwest. Supposedly where all confiscated border weapons are destroyed.

This machine had 3 levels of death where the last one pretty much made powder out of larger clods of powder.

I got a chuckle when they showed the guy sifting through to check for leftovers ,lol. Liberal genius to think a trigger that slips through might "Christine" back into a full, dangerous weapon :)
