As if the majority of guns used in crimes are not stolen by felons.
Much easier to do, and works everytime. morans like chuck want people to believe that crimials get their guns legally by buying them from a gunshop and that criminals intent on armed robbery and murder will not break gun laws. When is this madness going to be stopped and people like schumer shown for what they are. |

So people wanting to do bad things were following the law and now that it is legal, they will start making 3-d printed guns. if that is the case, can we take the original wording that prevented them from making them anyway and make an anti-murder law? It would be awesome to use that magic wording and put an end to murders. Chuck You is a moron. |

I do NOT have or do NOT plan to buy a 3D printer, but I downloaded the files just to increase the download count and piss off Chuck. I think everyone should download the files just to give old Chuck something to bitch about.
BTW someone needs to explain to Chuckie how the interweb works and how he will never be able to remove the plans or block access to them. |

BTW, everyone who is worried that (metal) barrels will become registered parts like receivers to try and stymie 3D printed guns, there is already a solution that uses 3D printing.
You get some seamless metal tube of the right diameter, or just drill a straight hole yourself on a drill press. You 3D print a plastic spiral the size you need and in the twist rate you want. Put thin wire in the grooves, then insert it in the metal tube. You take a battery charger for a DC source, hook it up to the wires and the barrel steel, and run salt water through the barrel with an aquarium pump and a bucket. https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2017/03/02/diy-barrel-rifling-using-salt-water-electricity-3d-printed-jig/ And DMLS printers will probably be $1000 or less by 2030 anyway. |

Also, The 3D gun files haven't exactly been hiding during the lawsuit. And only some of the designs are Cody Wilson's anyway.
Just Google "defcad fosscad mega pack" and it's all over the place, github, big download sites... Everywhere. The .zip file is about 4.5 gb and has hundreds of files in it. It gets updated open source style every few months with improvements and new designs. Even if you don't have a printer, you can download Cura for free. Just drag the .stl files from the mega pack .zip into Cura and you can see what they look like, rotate them in 3D etc. |

“Vice” had a short video on this last week.
While talking about the availability of easily 3D printed guns they showed an image of not only the actual goofy printed single shot plastic gun we all know, but also 3D renderings of an AR, AK, and VZ58. So of course if this is how it’s being covered, the uninformed now think people are printing out piles of fully formed AKs in their living room. |

I did print a full size lower at 100% infill. My printer definately needs some adjustment as the finished model was probably 95-99% full size. My spare FCG and upper wouldn't fit. |

There have been plans online for a few years now, were they illegal down there? The problem Defense Distributed ran into was they posted them online. State considered it an ITAR violation (it regulates the export of any tech that can be utilized by a foreign military). Violating ITAR is remarkably easy. Simply entering certain countries with regulated material can put you at risk of being in violation. Even civilian tech can be regulated if it can be adapted for military use. This is the basis for how the Fed has kept these files offline as best they can. Actually possessing them isn’t itself illegal AFAIK, but allowing free distribution to anyone on the internet is considering exporting. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Has anybody priced a printer that will print a strong enough resin part to actually fire for more than ten rounds? Printed lowers have surprisingly good longevity given the simple thermoplastic material they’re made out of. I’m not saying they’re better than aluminum, but they can work in a pinch. As I posted earlier, newer nano carbon-filled plastics (PLA, PTFE, ABS, etc) are remarkably durable and they don’t tear up brass extruder nozzles like they used to. The printer tech is there, now the materials are catching up. Chuck should be happy, most of the plastics these can be printed from are highly recyclable. No trash for the landfill, unless we’re talking AKs. |
