I don't know if it would ruin it but I've seen it done (dropping it in water). it's still hot so it evaporates off (shooting it with water droplets inside the barrel may damage it?). With water you could cool it in 5-10 seconds I'd think. I guess that this is also the premise behind water-cooled mgs. There are also stories about urinating on the barrel to cool it, putting snow on it, and I guess a fire extinguisher would work.
