So goofy. Anyone with a few tools, minor know-how, and some free time, can build a gun that would perform as well if not better than the 3d printed version.

Yep, two pieces of pipe, a cap and a bolt.

So far, manufacturing your own gun in your workshop is not illegal under US legal code.

Making a reliable working gun is a different proposition, but instructions may be gleaned from any number of sources, readily and legally available. That genie is out of the bottle.

The 3-D “printable” gun is not a practical device without a few key elements being extensively modified, and such modifications would totally obliterate the “undetectable” nature of the weapon when concealed.

We all built “zip guns” in the 50’s.

Anyone can build a gun. The Filipinos and Pakistanis hand make them.
