... which will be an enormous waste of time ...Id ask for it to be repaired back to origional condition, or reimbursement for the cost of the pistol. If the smith is not willing to make it right then go to the BBB.

A few years isn't very much legally speaking, either.The reason for my patience was the gun belonged to my father. As a boy I used to sneak in his room and open the drawer in which he kept it. It was in parts then too. I used to screw the barrel in, put the grips and trigger guard on and play with it for awhile before taking it apart and putting all the pieces back.
When my father passed, I got the gun and have always wanted to fire it. So I waited nearly 40 years since I first laid hands on the gun till it went to the smith. In light of that, a few years at the smith wasn't long.
BTW, the smith knew that story as well. I had way more sentimental value in the gun than what it was worth monetarily but that's true of a lot of firearms.
Who's criteria is this?For a gun to be destroyed it has to be witnessed and photos have to be taken, then photos go in the redbook that contains the gun.
That seems to be the only solution.As I said above...the 'smith" owes the OP a gun or money and a damned good explanation.
This one at least appears to be on it's way to resolution.I spoke with the owner today, he's a pretty good guy and he said he'd look into it and find out what happened.
