ATF Rul. 2003–2
"An ATF-approved method of destruction for an FN FAL type machinegun
receiver requires three diagonal torch cuts that sever or pass
through the following areas: (1) the threaded portion of the receiver ring
and magazine well opening at bottom, (2) the hinge pin, ejector block and
bolt guide rails, and (3) the body locking lug and bolt guide rails. All cutting
must be done with a cutting torch having a tip of sufficient size to displace
at least ¼ inch of material at each location. Each cut must completely
sever the receiver in the designated areas and must be done with
a diagonal torch cut. Using a bandsaw or a cut-off wheel to destroy the
receiver does not ensure destruction of the weapon."
