Keep having more guns on the street. Soon the U.S. will be like the wild west. Sad.

Well, now we have a fully functioning, 3-D printed gun that shoots real bullets. Just saw it on PBS Newshour. Also a 3-D printed multi-bullet cartridge.

So much for background checks.

And they are distributing the CAD file to anyone who wants to download it.
Nothing good can come from this.

Yep lots of difference from a cap pistol, and a 38 or 45 !! eek

Never heard of someone killed by caps !! crazy

and subliminally with a Mattel or other cap pistol - you know it's "play" not real !

Accidentally shoot your best friend - no problem a Billy Crystal "DO over !!'

the other - well - "Do time !"

I can't find anything on how accurate it was or if it could be fired twice even. All we really know s that it "fired" the one round. I'm taking his word that the cartridge even had a bullet in it.

It's certainly a long way off from a fully functional firearm as we know it. Not like the ones they show in the lead up to the short demonstration.

Seriously!

Where is the line
between an On-Line Bomb Making Course
and these idiots who allow this shyte into the wild?

AGAIN, these idiots are ruining on-line privacy for the
majority of people casually accessing the internet.


Brings back memories of my 3 years in Art School:
Every year like clock-work some newbie would think
he was a geniarse by "firing-up" in the rear stairwell.

The staff had a very unique fix for the infraction;
they'd have the janitor splash around industrial-
strength ammonia to mask the smell... sending us
all running from class to class holding their breath
and gasping for air for the rest of the day!
____________ sick sick sick sick sick sick sick
Problem solved:
Any time some fool attempted to toke-up, the rest
of us would do whatever was necessary to talk-some-
sense-them.

A Self-Policing System. WORKED LIKE A CHARM! laugh

Nuff Sed.
