World's first 3D printed metal gun

[TreVader]

What if the same schitzo kid gets a hold of a few 5 gallon cans of gas and a book of matches? Does that make you wet your pants too?

matches don't fly at 900m/s through bulletproof vests, genius. Next time you want to go hunting, bring a burning stick and see what you catch!

 

[TreVader]

Since when does owning any number of firearms automatically constitute endangering the lives of everyone around you?

Because you have no need for them, people could steal them from you, and you are far more likely to accidentally kill yourself or someone else than you are to do anything "productive" with them (if you can call murdering felons productive)


How can you argue it's NOT a safety issue?

Gosh darn it, I totally forget that you gun nuts had one too many bumps on the noggin' and now you're frontal lobe's are all messed up and you have the executive functions and judgement of the average 11yo boy. Sometimes I forget about that!

 

[BoberFett]

lmao ur right, the likelihood of you having anyone to have a kid with is very low. Foolish of me to think that. You don't have a CC permit you probably don't even own a gun!

All this bravado over the internet, you must be a navy seal

Says the moron who thinks everyone in the military is trained to be the government, and will execute any civilian on the spot if their CO tells them to...

So what you're saying is that none of these people are actually dead?

I'm sure they'll be thrilled to hear it after you dig them up.

Awww, poor little loser is all butthurt again. He's upset that people are allowed to do things he doesn't agree with. Little fascist wannabe is gonna cry...


Your mommy really should be paying closer attention to what you're doing online. Too much time on the internet isn't really healthy for undeveloped minds.

Holy shit, where did this Trevader guy come from?

Probably a new troll here. Most of this posts are absolute BS and trolling.

You are an amazingly stupid person, that you can operate a keyboard is mindbending.

My guess is he's an alt account or a banned poster back to troll the place.

Um, no, a guy in a shack is not machining from scratch using nothing but his tools and metal stock 8 semi auto pistols a day.

Here is one in the Philippines, they said it took about 2 weeks to make one depending on how intricate the design is. They don't really show much though, so it's more of a take there word for it type of thing.

So you refuse to refute my argument in any meaningful way, and have resorted to outright name calling towards, (what I'm assuming,) those keeping firearms for hobby. Way to support your argument there buddy. :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Back on topic, I can see 3D printers that use plastics being a commodity relatively soon, I'd agree that we most likely won't be seeing a printer that uses metals coming down to a humane price anytime soon. I'm highly curious on how lawmakers would plan on regulating 3D printers should they feel the need.

Thanks. Now those are some decent looking guns and he did built them from the ground up.

People keep talking about these hand made guns. Can somebody show me one that doesn't look like shit? And by hand made I mean you go from simple metal stock and end up with a reliable semi-auto, not something that looks like this:

I bet there are very nice hand made guns out there. And I bet they weren't so simple as loading some models on a PC, the stock in the printer, and pressing "Print".

Your description of machines pretty much covers every machine on the planet. Cars can be hand made, too, but they aren't needed. Still, manufacturing them on a line ends up with a better product and enough for everybody.

Here's a thread about a guy taking metal stock from a shovel and turning it into an AK.

This should frustrate the gun control supporters even more so this is good news.

as long as you guys end up injuring yourselves with your cheap guns, I'm all for it.

Classic liberal hatred of the poor. You don't wish anything bad to happen to Mitt Romney or Dick Cheney shooting their $120,000 Italian shotguns, but poor people should be injured by their firearms.

"Cheap" is a relative term in the firearms world.

Because a firearm is "Cheap" when it comes to its production does not mean it is a horrible firearm, e.g. The AK-47 design.

The original AK-47 was/is relatively a "Cheap" design when compared to other US or Western European firearms but its reliability, ease of use, short to mid range accuracy and simplicity in maintenance, are legendary and well known the world over. Hell I bet you can probably find some Vietnam era AK's still functioning in some fashion (albeit with a few repairs or modifications here and there) to this this day somewhere around the world.

Can't wait for the reactions when gangbangers are able to use this technology to arm themselves. It'll be interesting days indeed.

The gang bangers seem like they are already armed

It's not like there's a lack of supply for guns. Why would they opt for unproven new designs over their traditional sources?

"Short to mid range" accuracy means bad accuracy.

OK OK--"poorly made"

It's not a problem if you fill all of that space with bullets.
