Ignoring cosmetic damage, if a semi-auto handgun hits a concrete floor, what are the worst case damage scenarios (of any?).
Is the recoil of a 9mm (say) actually stronger than impact with the floor?
Or will the impact compromise the metal somehow, making the gun unsafe to fire?
I assume the barrel must be the strongest metal out of the entire gun? What if the gun hits barrel first?
