Bad news Gov, everything is dangerous. All things cause cancer. Stop trying to "help".
]]>they can outlaw plastic guns all they want i still have my printer and all the files. Fuck the Government.
i printed a 5 shot revolver you have to manually turn the chamber/barrel combo and it needs a 22 barrel liner to be epoxied into it.... barrel liner is in the mail though! and its way smaller than that thing
Pentagun?

]]>I see there is blurb over at fabaloo about a printed revolver ---> http://www.fabbaloo.com/blog/2014/2/13/ … r-it-works
It's a little clunky looking but a clever design for printing.
concealing that would be a challenge...

Schumer says that 3D printing has made what "was once a hypothetical threat into a terrifying reality."
I gotta say I've never seen a slingshot machete before
The slingshot crossbow is my favorite.
It's true about government creating laws about peoples perception however most peoples perception on 3d printing
have been from the media and just when the whole Cody Wilkinson liberator pistol started to widdle down
this popped up and will start creating more traffic for the media to exploit even though this was created with a half a million dollar printer, the news will spin it as "something that will soon come to the average consumer as the technology progresses everyday"
Biggest thing to bear in mind - Governments don't legislate reality, they legislate perception.
There isn't a wide-spread perception issues regarding slingshot-machete (due to wide spread ignorance), QED, they don't need to legislate them outside of the standard weapons laws (in Australia) that already cover that (from both our knife laws and our slingshot-classed-already-as-offensive-weapon stance). There *is* a perception issue with firearms.. hence the govt. legislates around them.
So yeah - always remember a governments job (from their perspective) is all about Perception Management - not actually Issue Management (hence with why they will pass ineffective and hole riddled legislation that wont change the status quo, but allows them to state that they have 'done something'.... )
Me, personally, would say if I was presented with such an issue if I cared about it (printing a 3D gun) would be, 'pick my battles'... if I can do it just as well 'anyway' in 'other ways'... then just let them have their perception management win, and move on - yes its a compromise but would seem to deliver the "win-win" take-away message for everyone
