This is America, wouldn’t it be easier just to buy a gun? I get that 3D printers can make ghost guns that aren’t traceable but how many crimes have occurred where that is the murder weapon?
Agreed. Every time I’ve looked into printing one I look at the process and just buy it. All the ghost guns I’ve made were from hollowed-out 80% lowers. And one time a hardware store slamfire shotgun.
I fully support one’s right to print a gat, but it sure ain’t for me.
Not as much as you think.
The thing is even in countries with strict gun laws 3D printed firearms are a negligible part of firearm crime.
This isn’t to say that they don’t exist. I saw images of criminal gun factories in Australia (which have been around well before 3D printing) that had integrated 3D printing into their stuff, but they still do a lot of metal work, too.

One CEO. More important than every dead schoolchild.
They asked about crimes.

Thats the neat part: they can make weapons the same way I can theoretically make a bomb from enriched uranium in my backyard.
