Torture testing came up in another thread and I had just done a search for a few at YouTube. I was amused and irritated by what I found.
It's stupid to bake a Glock cake, or submerge it in a water bucket then freeze it.
I find it tedious to submerge the gun in maple syrup, eggs and whatnot.
Likewise, to scrape the gun into loose dirt with the slide locked open, or burying each field stripped part into the same dirt.
Now, if you want to toss a loaded gun into the dirt or mud to simulate dropping a gun, then fine. But subjecting the gun to trials and tribulations it would never encounter in the real world serves no purpose to my way of thinking.
With that in mind, what realistic testing protocols do you think are reasonable?
