Anonymous Coward User ID: 76784673 United States 07/24/2018 07:18 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The case was about the 3D files, using a 3D printer to produce a firearm is pointless. Can you do it? Sure. Is it a functional firearm? Maybe, for a couple shots. At the same time, you can buy a CNC mill for about the same money as a good commercial 3D printer. The mill will take the same 3D CAD files, and produce a functional firearm in metal. Or a functional suppressor. Making your own firearms is totally legal, people do it all the time. This was a tempest in a teacup provoked by the idiot presstitutes to make 3D printers seem scary and dangerous. Some people already downloaded the files from DD. Most are just suitable for making replicas, such as grenades. The court case just said he has the right to share those files. |

The only part of a gun that needs a serial number is the part that houses the trigger. Glock and similar guns use polymers. I'm sure you could make the rest out of already manufactured parts. When did common sense become so uncommon? |

I believe H&K preceded Glock by a few years w/ a much less successful model. Plastic fantastic firearms made from modern polymers/(fiber)glass-filled nylon are here to stay, and I'll bet these eventually become viable, if not initially niche or novelty.

This new material does away with the necessity of sintering. None of which are going to be practical for home printing any time soon. The "metal" filaments just have some metal powder in the resin base. No stronger than the plastic that makes up most of the volume. I have 3 FDM printers and 2 SLA printers, I use them daily for my work, prototyping parts to later be machined or injection molded. Even the commercial sintering process doesn't produce high-strength parts. Still far more economical to machine from the start and end up with an actual metal part. |

You ain't seen nothing yet! User ID: 70689239 United States 07/25/2018 01:21 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | DIY 3D-printed guns get go-ahead after Trump administration strikes court deal Quoting: Just Christina Campaigner hails start of ‘age of the downloadable gun’ after state department reaches settlement with software designer From 1 August, thanks to the Trump administration, a commercially available software blueprint will allow people to make their own guns using ABS plastic resin and a 3D printer. The green light came late last month, with a court settlement between the designer of the blueprint and the US state department. Gun rights advocates celebrated. In a statement greeting the news, the Second Amendment Foundation founder and executive vice-president, Alan Gottlieb, said: “Not only is this a first amendment victory for free speech, it also is a devastating blow to the gun prohibition lobby.” Defense Distributed, the company behind the blueprint, declared: “The age of the downloadable gun formally begins.” More [link to www.theguardian.com (secure)] Biggest thing since the metallic cartridge. Kamala Harris is not a Natural Born Citizen. She's illegally running. Used by the Founders... Book I of The Law of Nations, Chapter XIX, § 212 (Joseph Chitty numbering) – “Citizens and natives” reads: 'The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens. As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by the children of the citizens, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all their rights.' 1758 Emerich de Vattel Oh' What the Hell, do I look like I want to die in some nursing home one day... America must have 4 new Constitutional Amendments... 1. Drug Tests and Mental Evaluations on all politicians and judges randomly five times per year. 2. Term Limits for Federal politicians and judges. 3. Mental and health standards for Supreme Court Justices and retirement age set. 4. A 'Star Chamber' of elected Natural Born Citizens (no attorney's) to ivestigate, try, and prosecute the politicians and government employee's as they see fit. Mandatory death penalty by public hanging is the merciful sentence for pedos and their associates. Democrats are a WMD, literally. Let Justice Be Done Though The Heavens Fall. |
