I 3d printed part of the liberator as a fun project but stopped it halfway because i realized how stupid it was, and a waste of plastic to boot. the advantage that 3d printers have over machine shops is that you only need one tool. the disadvantage is that 3d printing is a lot more expensive than making a slamfire shotgun, and a lot less safe. it is true that potentially they could become a crime gun, esp given that most criminal handguns are lovely broken guns with a few rounds that were stolen with them. most criminal handguns are either filled with a few rounds in the mag, the wrong ammo, or a weird mix of casings. Crimeguns are meant to be used in emergencies or for a specific task and then dumped, which would make 3d printed guns good for the task since they wouldn't have to withstand more than one to several shots. Check out "The Guns of Salty Balty" thread in TFR to learn more.

I think making a barrel + reciever out of plastic is a recipe for ending up losing your hand, as would be using sintered metal. Seems risky. I could see almost anything other component being able to be 3d printed, but even limiting your weapon to a small number of shots with a printed receiver is still playing with fire.

chitoryu12 posted:For someone who wants or needs a gun immediately for a low cost, the typical market is inexpensive ($150 or less) handguns that may or may not be bought legally. This includes both self-defense by someone who can't afford a more expensive gun and criminals who want something that only needs to last long enough for a robbery or single murder and then gets thrown away. This triggered an article I recall reading some years back, talking about "community guns" in troubled urban areas. Basically, a gun that multiple people in a neighborhood know about and share responsibility in stashing, with the tradeoff being they can use it (if, I assume, they don't "lose" it). The gun in the mailbox, the one in an electrical meter, the guy in "know a guy" you're just one step over the line from meeting..poo poo,one Glock 23 was linked to 37 shootings in Syracuse, NY by comparing the spent cartridges it left at crime scenes between each other for ballistics identification. And it makes sense. There might be only so many legal owners in an area to burgle or rob over time. It takes time, risk, and cost to traffick guns in from states with looser gun laws (same as the factors for any other contraband). There are only so many "clean" people (typically women) who can do straw purchases to bypass a friend, lover, or relative's otherwise-barring felony conviction. I think at some level criminals/associates of such realize that what affects a black market trade in arms isn't so much a matter of supply itself (which might be a universal black market constant) but, rather, the rate of that supply combined with demand. I'm sure some freakonomicist has already published a paper discussing and analyzing the intersection points of black market gun supply as represented by risk, cost, supply, demand and so on. So the point I guess I'm trying to make is that criminals seem to hoard firearms equally as much as conventional wisdom would say they have single-time "use it and lose it" mentalities about all their weapons. They hoard them, because black market transactions necessitate that somebody have a ready arsenal of guns to sell or dump. And if the purchasers are themselves engaging in black market transactions (backed up by black market violence), then the economically logical sense is that if you're resigned to engaging in black market commerce (resigned to a life of crime, basically) that might inevitably entail shooting and killing someone at some point...why pay for the same gun, the same service, twice if you don't have to? Especially if that gun is still a potentially hot commodity again even after being used for your purposes! So 3D printing being used to make instruments of purpose-driven criminal enterprise (like guns) should be concerning to everyone. It might be easy to laugh and dismiss plastic handguns that fail after seven shots now, but if enough of them can be cranked out to meet parity with demand (driven in turn by black market use and necessity of regular replacement)...well, that's a problem. Because then it's possibly not too much farther until a social tip-over point (backwards, of course) provides enough demand regardless of gun laws for firearms. Then you have arms races and social disorder. Today's plastic printers get replaced by CNC machines and raw material, or those metalworking 3D printers. Lethality evolves and absorbs once something innocuous meets an offensive need for violence, just as ISIS used modified drones for close-range air-to-ground attacks with hand grenade bombs. So this is where I finish with agreement that something has to be done about gun supply (I favor "restrictive" over "prohibitive" gun control myself) to curtail the flowrate of guns into the black market. But I also agree that alone won't be enough if other societal factors persist to drive the existence of criminal enterprise, with its attendant criminal needs internally and services to the edgecase societal periphery, because the size of the effectively perpetual black market armory will be affected by both the rate of supply and the rate of demand.

uber_stoat posted:3d printing guns seems like a waste of time, given that even cave dwelling Afghani children are capable of learning how to make guns. why bother with a giant expensive machine when you can study up and then hit the hardware store. During the Troubles in North Ireland the UVF got pretty good at making homemade submachineguns out of scrap metal The IRA preferred the Armalite AR-18 [DOES NOT STAND FOR ASSAULT RIFLE] assault rifle, aka "The Widowmaker". e: imho those homemade ones are good for shooting holes in any "ban the scarier looking ones" policy e2: now I got a Douglas Adams quote stuck in my head quote:The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with.'

It all comes around back to that, huh Yes, well, I don't think anyone involved in the gun control debate cares about criminal use of guns, except as a whataboutism to shut down debate. I think people are more worried that civil situations that once might have gone incivil, now might go deadly

It's not something that civilized people concern themselves with. i listen to a lot of audio books at work and a while back i did a bunch of controversial books to challenge myself and one of them was The Turner Diaries, the neo nazi fantasy book that inspired the oklahoma city bombing. Anyway the first 1/3rd of the book is the heroic neo nazis bitching about how the minorities commit robberies and such for evil primative reasons and immediately after the author says that he has the characters start robbing liquor stores to fund their terrorism and quite literally says its ok when we do it. well thats my post thanks for reading

Visidan posted:i see this comment posted after every destiny debate against some alt right/right wing genius Yeah, I listened to the whole debate and it's definitely not worth the listen. The main guyJon that Destiny was debating can be distilled to "the solution to gun violence is more guns." Then like halfway, Baked brought in two more right wingers to dogpile on Destiny. The basically were brought in as "stat guys" to counter Destiny's claim that the problem isnt unique to the US because the other countries are ethnostates and were just short of implying that blaming gun violence on minorities in the US. It was interesting to listen to as Destiny is pro gun and I wanted to see how the RW would approach him.
