Watch as a WW2 Colt 45 is melted into useless "art".

Think of all the nice guns that could be made from this turd.

[mountainlion]

Art? Not really. Revenge maybe.

[IamCenny]

Take your deceased father’s possessions and destroy them, way to honor your father, asshole.

[Argus]

It took an incredible amount of engineering skill, technical ingenuity, and industrial development to make something like the 1911 .45. It takes nothing but a moron with a blowtorch to turn it into junk.

[WOBBLY BOB]

it would be better to melt a hippy’s facial piercings into a .45

The entire purpose of “modern art” is to convert useful and meaningful things into useless and meaningless objects.

[RitchieAprile]

Is that the one in San Jose? I always wondered why a statue of a #2...

[Renderofveils]

“The sidearm that my father used to stay alive long enough to spawn the disgraceful little peacenik I’ve become? Oh, I had some schmuck melt it down and weld it into a coffin because it only represents death.”

[NakedRampage]

Sickening. Honestly, to take a beautifully engineered tool and melt it down to useless waste is sickening.

It took him EIGHT YEARS to make that crappy metal “coffin”? Can you say “hack”, boys and girls?

[savagesusie]

Not many-—it’s a glob of artificial cement-—too cheap to use metal—just a half of million dollars for some doggy-dropping-looking god of the inhumane, evil, slaveholders and child killing Aztecs.

And I thought we had ugly public art. Like the "Chevy on a Stick".

[Lazlo in PA]

What a joke. This Commie Pinko and his faggot friends think they are making a “difference” with his so called art. This stuff is junk and judging by national gun sales, he is having absolutely no effect on anything. The belly laugh came at the end with his childlike philosophy of gun ownership. What a putz.

[Army Air Corps]

I don't think that most gun owners have thought about it in those moral terms.

The "artist" doesn't know many gun owners. Most of my fellow handgun owners have thought about using deadly force to protect themselves and their loved-ones. Perhaps the "artist" can sit-down and "rap" with an armed intruder in his home and see how well he does.

NOO! The Colt 45 is in my Top 10 of Favorite guns!

Idiocy, Pure Unadulterated Idiocy!

[Army Air Corps]

Hideous.

[fish hawk]

a mere media whore.

AMEN! A 1911 .45 IS a work of art in the grand scheme of human achievement. These brain-dead "artists" don't see the irony in turning a true work of art into junk.
