My printer doesn't arrive till June, but my buddy has had one since last year and we've played around with it to make air guns, magazines, sights, and small parts like safeties and mag releases. We've printed a couple fake guns to see how precise the printer can be and we've been impressed, very little handfitting was needed and it all could be done with a hand file.

Cody Wilson is a publicity hound and god bless him for it as I don't want that kind of attention. I'm waiting for the day I wake up to find he and his have been rounded up by the ATF for some trumped up garbage ole' Slick Willy style. He's playing a dangerous game publicly.

Everytime I go to court the metal in my dress shoes set it off. The metal in my mechanical pens set it off. So the metal in a recoil springs, firing pin, or brass case for a round of ammo, or the brass for the primer, will set it off, not to mention the lead. Twenty years ago metal detectors were quite pour, now they are incredibly sensitive.

If you watched the vid of the gun it's a single shot pistol. Against one or two balifs armed with pistols, the shooter would be dead on sight.

That's this gun. I'm betting a clever gunsmith could make the whole thing out of plastic. A pneumatic could have no metal parts or bullet.

BTW question my service and you look like a fucking imbecile. And why exactly would my service, which was 20 years ago anyway dumbass, have made me an expert on metal detectors?

Once all of the parts have been smuggled into the location they would be assembled. In the movie, John Malkovic's character used ceramic parts to make a 2-barrel gun. The only metal was a pair of springs.

This is neither good nor bad - it is just another use of technology. It is how people use is that will be good or bad.
