Worse gun torture test you have ever done?

Don't know about a torture test, but I double load proof (two balls and twice the normal powder charge) on every muzzleloader barrel I have breeched.
 
When I was going to check traps around the farm after a long night's rain I was startled by a hog running at me (even though he was inside the trap) to the point that I stumbled backwards and fell into a muddy puddle....

Didn't have time to clean up the gun on my hip before finishing off a couple pigs....but, it's a Glock ;)

Never have conducted an intentional "torture test" though
 
I did something like that to my para ordnance. Only I dragged it under water in the mud and small rocks to see if it would fire when caked with the mud. It did but each bullet after the first one reguired me to tap the rear of the slide to chamber the next round, though it only needed a little bit of help to finish going forward.
 
I reload and had reloaded about 2000 rounds of 9mm. One day I went to the range and found the box of ammo I brought was severely over pressure. I realized I didn't know when I loaded it or how I screwed up and I had 2000 rounds of ammo that may or may not be safe. The cheapest 9mm I had was a Hi-Point Carbine. I loaded up the ammo and headed to the range. I fire two rounds out of each box and found 5 boxes of ammo that was loaded overpressure. I wasn't sure what to do with this ammo so I decided to just fire it off. The Carbine hammered through all 250 rounds and didn't miss a beat. Its a tough little carbine. Too bad taking it apart for cleaning was so tedious.
 
I left my AR10 locked in my truck for a week, at 40 below. Touched off a few rounds while it was still covered with frost. No problems.

Used my Ruger all weather Syn. stocked mod 77 300 win mag for a canoe paddle once. (empty with bolt removed) No fun when you get caught down stream 11 miles with no paddle.:eek:
