Ya I thought the same thing. It was surprisingly fair and informative

It was however lacking in explaining this: But Mr. Crumling has also created something else in his garage that distinguishes him from his peers, a potential solution to a problem that has long vexed creators of 3-D printed guns: a bullet that wouldn’t ruin the plastic firearms.

They don't explain that at all, only that DIY guns are becoming better and people are working on ammo for them that won't fuck up the gun

You don't understand the liberal agenda machine.

First have some stories about how scary or dangerous something is (3D guns).

Next educate folks on how easy it is to make scary bullets at home.

Finally push for "something to be done".

Pretty fair article, any possible technical issues were very minor.

They will, however, eventually come for reloaders. The relative obscurity and a perceived high barrier to entry are the only things protecting it now, IMO.

With a case like that, you wouldn't have to worry about stuff like flaring the case mouth to get the bullet started, then crimping it to hold the bullet.

Just bevel the case mouth a bit to help with starting the bullet, then let the rifling hold the bullet in place, after it is pressed in to the proper depth.

End result is a muzzle loading, primer fired, barrel that is quickly swapped for another barrel, instead of reloading the same barrel.

ETA: Figuring out a way to feed those 'pre-loaded barrels' from a magazine, without the muzzles chewing on the internals of the plastic gun, would be a challenge.

revolver.
Too old school for a plastic gun, and not the easiest thing to make semi-auto.

Imagine the liberal hysteria over matching the recovered bullets to the barrel being made pointless, because the barrel is ejected from the gun after each shot.

ETA:  Maybe something like this
Attachment Attached File


Sort of a 'bolt over barrel' type action, with the barrels being fed forward a short distance from the magazine, and the 'bolt' sliding over the barrel to chamber it.  When the gun is fired, the 'bolt' recoils and ejects the spent barrel.

i agree.

The liberals have realized that their rabid hate machine doesn’t work, and only makes them look stupid by hilighting how little they know about the topic. This is their new gentler approach where they “attempt to learn.” And by “learn” I mean “write an expose designed to introduce fear into peoples’ minds under the guise of understanding.

They’ve started to adopt this tactic within the past month or two. It’s every bit as insidious as their past campaign, just in a less hysterical shell.

Be on the lookout.
