Yup. I read Blackbeard carried six of them on his person, ready to fire, at all times.

No politician or journalist has speculated along the angle that these can be printed by the thousands and dropped into an area like North Korea and whole populations can be liberated by using them.

Politicans of course don't want to bring up this angle because if they advocate overthrowing oppressive leaders, they might find out their citizens put them in that category.

Not much better than a zip gun really. If anything would rather just get a black powder revolver, at least it has six shoots and most places you don’t even need to fill out a form. Of course getting black powder now days might be a bit more difficult but it’s easily made.

Texans doing what Texans do.
Solving problems and innovating.

Now lets perfect caseless cartridges.

I don’t see what the point of the government going after this is.

Two pipes and a screw make a one shot shotgun.

....I think they are going about this the wrong way....

What we need here is a "Paradigm Shift"....(whack on the side of the head for those in Rio Linda)...

So the trick is to make a MOULD with the 3-D printer....

then use a metal powder and polymer fill that is converted into solid with liquid catalyst....(surface tension draws the liquid into the powder).....

That way you get a much stronger product.

First up....a wheel gun.

That was because they had enough mass to be reversed and used as a club.
