Need to learn the "Mortar" method. While at the range, muzzle in safe direction (45 degrees down range, etc). Collapse the stock if needed. Firmly bring the but down onto the ground or firm bench while pulling on the charger handle. Usually easier to do with two people, just be safe with the muzzle.
Much less stress and trauma than beating on the CH with a hammer/wrench. Inertia is your friend, and you usually do not have to slam it at all. It's not the speed, it's the quickness of the stop that makes it work.
