banning 3d models is banning free speech.

You got a link to the sauce? I was talking to someone about this the other day and could use the article.

How in the holiest of fucks are you going to ban something that, by it's very nature, people can quite literally print at home?

Good luck with that you fucking retards.

What about 79% lowers?

They’ll never stop the signal ctrlpew, deterrence dispensed, fosscad, and lbry

I've printed many guns, never bought plans for any of them.

That ideas should freely spread from one to another over the globe, for the moral and mutual instruction of man, and improvement of his condition, seems to have been peculiarly and benevolently designed by nature, when she made them, like fire, expansible over all space, without lessening their density in any point, and like the air in which we breathe, move, and have our physical being, incapable of confinement or exclusive appropriation.

He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

― Thomas Jefferson

The great thing about 3d printers is that they allow our right to free expression to protect our right to self defense.

It should be clear by now that the constitution isn't doing shit on that front.

He can try but they would have a hard time doing anything. Unless the government seizes all forms of machinery and hardware (see: dekulakization) they cannot stop people’s ability to make guns if that’s what they feel like they need to do. Also, 3d printed guns are pieces of shit and never used in crimes. It’s more of a proof of concept to demoralize gungrabbers. They need to give up or try and go full internet censorship surveillance state

For example if you are smart you can make a 3d printer. You can get gun plans and printer plans. For now it is totally legal and legitimate to make your own non fully auto guns for yourself. If someone was depraved enough to want to plan some type of violent crime, by the time they were able to make their own gun, they’d probably get a sense of accomplishment and self satisfaction leading them to rethink their plans. Seriously these fuckheads doing school shootings don’t have fathers in the household. They probably couldn’t change the toilet paper roll let alone make a functional weapon.

If you’re concerned about this you should be buying barrels, upper parts kits and ammunition, because those are the important things that may be changed to required to be registered or whatever. If you had a upper parts kit with the bolt, you could probably make the rest out of wood and a trip to ACE if you wanted to, and people can do it legally.

It’s just a shame because the american manufacturing system which led the industrial revolution is totally based on gunsmithing and interchangeable parts. People that are interested in making guns are literally just hobby machinists. And that should be celebrated. It’s a small machine that fits in your hand. Anything else that would be worth making out of metal would be much larger and more expensive

3D printed guns can't fire higher caliber than. 22LR because they are plastic.

Stop making/buying/selling 80% lowers and start doing 70% lowers.

Buy a machine that cuts aluminum blocks and make your own lowers from scratch. The machine is quite expensive though. Might have to start making them by hand.
