        If they are not melted down numrich or brownells will buy burnt guns for the parts especially if old guns. Where ie your friend located?

          What actually "destroys" them? Is it that the cost outweighs the worth?
          Seems like a waste not to try.
          Would a long gun barrel get warped by the heat? I get it if a burning house fell into a long gun and bent it.
          Here's the other question, you put in a homeowner's claim, does somebody take the gun like with a "totaled" car?

          A lot more effort and commitment than a boating accident but, oh wait, this is all hypothetical and conjecture anyway.
          Nevermind.

            The heat weakens the receiver and barrel. Internal components too. You can attempt to use them but you may get a kaboom.

                The NLIP form has a provision to report a destroyed firearm.

                  Shame, even in my safe, in a fire, I worry about my firearms and my dogs, neither can save themselves. No my dogs are not in the safe!

                        Not hypothetical
                        No boating accident just a destroyed home with guns lost
