  • I'm almost positive that you can buy one with about $1000, which a criminal could easily have. Yep, here one is: http://portabee3dprinter.com/shop/portabee-3d-printer-complete-kit-uassembled/ Not sure if this one specifically would be able to print the parts for guns, but it goes to show how cheap they're getting.
