They got some of it from you. Only they keep the money they steal from you. Places like Wal Mart gives then give cards for $10.00 or so. Like Esau in the Bible, people who sell theirbirth right, sell it cheap. He got a bowl of stew for his.

“Yesterday’s event is a part of Attorney General James’ ongoing efforts to combat gun violence and protect New Yorkers throughout the state.”

This is so stupid it defies belief!

I’m sure the criminals were the ones turning in their guns.

Glad to see some ingenious entrepreneur taking advantage of their stupidity!

This guy should write a book - How to Get Rich Off of Liberal Stupidity.

I think 12 hours is a bit underestimated too, for the printing time. For a high end 3D printer, it might put them out faster, but even still, those things would take a few hours for each one.

If he used one of the more advanced printing filaments (instead of PLA filament that is far less expensive, but less durable and cannot withstand heat and stress) it would take longer and cost more, but I don’t see how he doesn’t come out ahead in the end.

Most 3d printed frames do not have serial numbers

Where did the government get the money to “buy back” guns?

Many, if not most, of these gun turn in schemes are funded with recent money borrowed in the Democrat's multi-trillion dollar spending spree.

The "auto sears" are small, about the size of a 1" nut. He printed 30 of them to a bed, and printed 2 beds, at six hours each.

I had no idea. I had no idea whatsoever that that these items they are giving money to people for were that item.

I thought at the very least it would be the reciever, which would take far longer to print.

Wow.

If that is the case, this guy should be given a medal for robbing stupid people of their money. (I know, in this case the “stupid people” are US getting our tax money robbed from us, but...at least not federally. Yet. Unless the localities get a handout from the Federal Government to conduct these fiascos. Which is possible.)
