I'm actually pointing it out to law-abiding citizens that might want to put one of these guns together.
Print, Aim and Shoot: What Does a Plastic Handgun Mean for the Future of 3-D Printing?
http://www.scientificamerican.com/ar...SA_DD_20130510
Looks like there is steel placed in the handle to make it legal.
right... which is what you need to do to make it legal.
... with no gun b/g checks and with no gun safety training, naturally.
yes, serious, mature, healthy "law abiding" citizens who put safety of themselves and all others first.
Since a sufficient 3D printer is more expensive than a "home defense" Saturday night special,, "law abiding" citizens are to be trusted and never regulated.
Self-regulating "Just Trust Us" always works![]()
Can someone who knows guns explain to me if it's even possible to make a plastic gun? I'm just curious tbh. The whole thing seems scary given where people could take a plastic gun but also pretty cool that you can literally print a gun.
It's gonna be funny when companies like Bushmaster and S&W start pouring money into the lobby to ban these types of guns.
Yes, its possible....in fact one guy is already doing it...and what's funnier is that one day, the NRA, who supports gun manufacturers, not the freedom to carry guns, may have to come out against these guns to support their puppet-masters...
yeah that's what the bottom of my post was implying
I ed up in my original post, is it possible for the gun to be 100% plastic?
Yes, but it's not legal. See my previous posts about the law.
This 3D printing sounds dope, would be interested to see what else people can make with it, tbh.....
no. You'd need a firing pin.
....can you imagine an organic version that can print perfect replacement organs or limbs?
THE DOWNLOADABLE GUN...

http://torrentfreak.com/pirate-bay-t...le-gun-130510/A few days after the blueprints for the world’s first printable gun were published online, Defense Distributed has been asked by the State Department to pull them down, citing possible arms trafficking violations. The blueprints, however, are still available on The Pirate Bay and many other file-sharing sites, which adds a 3D chapter to the IP enforcement debate.The Pirate Bay says it welcomes the blueprints and has no intention of taking the files down.
3d-goneIn late 2012 the 3D blueprint website Thingiverse decided to ban 3D gun designs, citing their terms of service which clearly prohibit files used to make weapons.
Enter DEFCAD, a site dedicated to hosting designs that have been banned at Thingiverse. Namely, the entirely printable 3D gun design which clocked up more than 100,000 downloads within its first two days of release.
This did not sit well with the Department of State Office of Defense Trade Controls who kindly requested that DEFCAD remove the availability of the 3D printable gun do ents, enthusiastically named “The Liberator,” citing a possible violation of International Traffic in Arms Regulations.
Meet The 'Liberator': Test-Firing The World's First Fully 3D-Printed Gun...
http://www.forbes.com/sites/andygree...d-printed-gun/. John has just pulled a twenty-foot length of yellow string tied to a trigger, which has successfully fired the world’s first entirely 3D-printed gun for the very first time ... He hurries over to examine the firearm bolted to an aluminum frame ... After the handgun round, Wilson switched out the Liberator’s barrel for a higher-charge 5.7×28 rifle cartridge. He and John retreated to a safe distance, and John pulled his yellow string again. This time the gun exploded, sending shards of white ABS plastic flying into the weeds and bringing the Liberator’s first field trial to an abrupt end ...
The creator of the design, IIRC, has a Type 7 Federal Firearms License to Manufacture
New sig?
I'd love to hear the gun-industry/NRA take on this new printable METAL gun.
dunno why authorities are mad, the clowns that should be mad are the chinese who be undercut by the avg joe behind a computer
what %age of USA guns are made in China?
http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2...ports-in-2010/
With 300M+ guns flooding USA now, I don't really see why a printed metal guns would help criminals who already can get as many guns and gun types as they want.
Pretty awesome stuff there..... unsurprisingly, boutons' vagina is bleeding all over the place because of it![]()
