The first video (which started off with a bang on the AR) and the second (which was a whimper on the AK) has inspired Eric at IV8888 to continue pushing guns well past any norm of usage and see where they will finally melt down. Up to bat for the third stretch is a Gen 3 Glock with an aftermarket full-auto sear.

Complete with brass ammo, steel-cased ammunition, and tracer rounds, Eric puts on his welding mask and pulls the trigger until the handgun decides to go.

Also includes thermal footage! Gun gets so hot it is able to cause a cook-off.
