Print a Fully Functional Gun from Your Own Computer!

submitted by pumkinandstorm

(youtube) Advancing technology is not bad or evil, but people must be prepared to use it responsibly and be aware of the potential dangers new technology will pose. When people know how to use technology and can master it, it can drastically improve their lives. But if people lose control of it, it can be dangerous.

Defense Distributed founder Cody Wilson's project to create a fully functional 3D printed gun recently showcased its development of a plastic, high-capacity magazine. Although there have been propositions to ban so-called high-capacity magazines, the design Defense Distributed posted on its website for such a 3D printable magazine has been downloaded more than 50,000 times within the last week, according to Wilson. With 3D printing technology, these are items that Wilson said essentially cannot be banned.

Sensationalised BS here. The news about making guns is overly exaggerated right now, but won't be if the vision comes true that working, effective 3D printers are in every household with designs as easy to download as Napster did to fill mp3 players.

You can either print a non-working gun for a few hundred dollars, or laser-sculpt a working inferior gun for a few thousand dollars, or still buy a black market industry-standard gun for an amount in between.

American politics is pigeonholed into a linear spectrum, with points extending to the left and right of the Democrat and Republican goalposts. But it's really a wheel, and Cody & Glenn here don't overlap in between those, but at the other side with their Libertarianism.

Glenn Beck is a piece of shit.
Sorry whats this video about again?

charliem says...

"I dont beleive in obama vs romney, thats fake politics...this (gun printing)? This is real politics"

So...hes an anarchist, hes in favor of "whoever has the guns writes the history books".

Cool...got it, but this aint a paradigm that the world works with. Good luck.

I've downloaded the 3d model files on thepiratebay.org or kat.ph

went over to my dad's workshop and printed up a sweet extended magazine for a russian sks I own. It's illegal I guess since it's unregistered, I bought it from a guy's garage sale about 20 years ago but it had a 5 ammo clip, I printed a magazine that holds 20 ammo. So I printed 2 and epoxied them together so I can put the mag in, shoot 20, flip the mag upside down and fire off another 20.

nice little system
