3D printed guns

How do ya'll feel about them? Now I'm not asking if they should be banned cause it's literally impossible to ban something off the internet. You take it off general search engines and they move over onto the dark web. I feel like it was something that was inevitably going to happen, and was accelerated by the scare of dems and neo-cons trying to restrict and ban guns from common citizens. It's less of just guns being online and more of an ideology of sorts. Say they go to the source and arrest the main person behind these blueprints (I forgot his name) and shut down his company so they can't continue to improve. That'll just further prove what the people who follow him believe about lsoing their right to bear arms and they'll all start to improve on the schematics.

  • This feels like a non-issue to me. It's fairly expensive to get a 3D printer that can print this and they can be difficult to operate so I don't see this becoming a situation where every regular Joe has one. The gun that caused the commotion is able to shoot a single bullet at a time before needing to reload. It's not accurate at all and runs the risk of blowing up in your hand. They did 3D print a 1911, but in order to do that you need a crazy expensive CNC Machiner type 3D printer that does its thing with metal instead of plastic..

  • I just wonder how long it will be before we start hearing about shootings occurring in gun free countries with these things.

  • Wouldn’t they need to still buy bullets? Like that’s 85% if why guns are dangerous. [spoiler]the other 15% is if you hit someone with it. They F’ing hurt man![/spoiler]

    • If you support guns in general it would be weird not to support 3D printed guns.

    • I mean... the solution is to give everyone in the US a gun and gun safety/training classes from an early age more than you already do when you play COD because CoD is not realistic enough to train a whole nation.

      • Aren't these only able to shoot a single bullet before the integrity of the barrel and receiver are compromised?

        • I’d rather people just buy guns legally. You can’t keep track of a weapon if it’s 3D printed. I’m not against guns by any means. I have two. But it’s dangerous in my opinion.

            Personally, I do not trust those guns. Even in the polymer guns, the barrels and slides are still metal. People really do not understand the force that is contained within that little round. If a round can blow up a metal barrel, imagine the destruction of a plastic gun.
