Just buy a normal fucking gun, this is America ffs there are more guns than people.
We’re not all Americans.
What are you, Swiss? Australian? Irish?
The same applies.
Planet is choked with guns. They're everywhere and very easy to get. Absolutely no reason you need one that's been churned out by a printer you got on Temu.
3D printed guns are being used by rebels in Myanmar. They are valid weapons capable of fighting in a war and far more powerful than anything I could legally get in my country.
I'd have no idea where to get a gun in Japan. I'd rather just 3D print one if things got bad enough.
That's hilarious.I'll 3d print that toy lmao
Yeah. 3D printing a gun is a great way to blow your hand off.
Don't 3D printed guns have normal parts except for the slide and handle which are 3D printed?
Some people make their own barrels with electro chemical machining. But that's usually for people who can't get their hands on parts.
