    As someone who got a 3d printer mostly to do 3d2a "stuff", I can tell you there's a huge community around designing "stuff". And a lot of it has gotten really sophisticated. I'm always amazed how smart some of these people are, not to mention they're always ahead of the game. Also, since it's legal in a lot of the US, there's a ton of business's popping up that cater to 3d printed needs.
    It's definitely a case of the cat being out of the bag. They really should just focus on dealing with actual criminals doing crime vs casting a wider net and turning previously law abiding citizens into criminals.

The media can not report that not only a good guy with a gun but an NRA instructor stopped a mass shooting. In the little reporting of the shooting the shooters fire arm was labeled as an ar15 and the good guy with a gun stopped him with a hunting rifle. The hunting rifle was also an ar15.
      They then began to claim he didn't stop the shooting, even though victims' who survived said the shooter was standing above them setting up the kill shot on them when their savvier began shooting at the shooter, pulling his attention off of them and saving their lives. The shooter also had notes of multiple of targets and when he fled the seen he was heading to another church.
      This shooting is ignored by gun control activists because it disproves all of their claims.

    The gun used to kill Abe actually used an electronic ignition system. Since it was a muzzle loader design, no firing pin is needed. I've also saw on FW a recovered gun that some criminal in Africa iirc (poachers i think?) made, it was a muzzle loading hand gun where a spent 50 BMG shell was the barrel, and they even use crushed up match heads as the powder. If people want to make a gun, they are going to make a gun. It is completely infeasible to try and completely stop it. The list of things you would have to ban would be immeasurable

Issue was my friend did not take ID with them. Hence she could not buy it since she could not prove she was older than 16, even though she obviously looked not only over 16 but old enough to have older kids herself. So yeah a product which is aimed to be given to kids to use cannot be bought unless you have ID proving you are an adult due to laws saying glue can only be bought by people over 16.

Aside from that making your own guns in the states is legal so far as the completed firearm doesn't run afoul of some other law; i.e. you can't legally make a machine gun without the proper licensing because machineguns made after 1986 aren't legal for the general population to own, but a shotgun rifle or pistol are fair game so long as they comply with all other federal state and local laws.

    My opposition to this kind of law is simple: it assumes from the start that all citizens are potential criminals, and they have to prove themselves to the authorities. Morally, it's something I can never stomach, and unfortunately this thought procesd is the basis for a lot of laws out there.
    As far as to who might lobby for this, I can point out at firearm manufacturers. They certainly aren't pleased at the perspective of people potentally making their own guns fast and easy. Of course it's funny considering how far away we are from making viable guns, but the potential is there.

    Gun laws are not about security. its about control, thats why it doesnt makes sense

    Ban kitchen knives. Ban long metal objects. Ban glass. Ban sticks, ban sports equipment, ban speaking, ban thinking

    Are you going to ban mini lathes? Anyone with a library card, a mini lathe, and a mini mill can make their own machine gun if they wanted to.

    Just want to point out that _murder_ is already illegal. Just in case anyone wasn't quite aware of that little tidbit of information. Killing another person = big no-no.
    So..... any additional laws that outlaw murdering people in specific ways or with specific tools is completely and utterly redundant.

    Technically speaking, styrofoam and gasoline alone doesn't actually make nalpalm. It burns really well though. There is a component that is added to the mixture, but it isn't well known.

    If it is made or has been modified to propel projectiles to hazardous speeds, its a firearm and has to abide by the law.

    I keep seeing this being reported as if its a law thats likely to be passed and supported by a lot of lawmakers.
    From further reading this seems to be written and backed by a single representative.
    It seems unlikely it would ever get passed.

    For anyone interested; Get the printer now. These people are crazy and will ban anything to strip you of your basic human right to protect yourself. I would go one step further; buy everything you need to protect yourself today rather than tomorrow.

    In New York, even apartments have license plates. Why shouldn't your 3D printer? =)

    To answer the question of who lobbied for this: no one. This is a result of American politics. Basically because New York City is pretty much only democratic, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, the politicians need issues to use as campaign ads. In order to make themselves seem like they are making a difference they must have issues they promote and because they are democrat is had to be something like this. Because of our two party system, things in America usually only go in the direction of more radical even if it means more stupidity. Might be hard to understand when your not from our terrible political system. Hope this helps!!

    can we just talk about the fact that you can build a 3-d printer part by part like a PC. theres no way to actually regulate this.

    Anybody who wants a 3D printer should have one. Anyone who wants to make a ghost gun should be able. NY is a clown show. God bless PA Luty.

    This just emphasizes the absurdity with banning and background checks on firearms in general. Some people are just grasping at anything they can to impact the ability for people to get them.

    The Next Layer (youtube & podcast) had a really good coverage of this. Basically at this stage, it's non-trivial to make, but the tools are now a CHEAP printer, basic filament, and stuff from the local hardware store.

    2:18 The entire argument of gun control. People who want guns will have them. It doesn't matter if they're smuggled OEM, 3D printed, made in a machine shop, or completely homemade with hand tools. The genie can't be put back in the bottle at this point.
