    I'd have to keep that bolt as a souvenir.

    Just what I was thinking. Covered in dirt/corrosion/meltedness? but I don't see anything immediately jumping out saying "this will never work again". Is there anything like that I missed?

    Im just going off memory but I think the guns that came back most of the lower receivers were salvageable. It was the uppers and everything else that was bad. I think out of the dozen or more rifles that were busted up I think we completely replaced around 3 or 4. If you look at the lower you will see the portion of the upper receiver, where the rear take down pin fits, is still "pinned" in even though it broke completely off the upper. I'll go through some more pics and see what I have.
