Re: The Firearms Thread
Useless as long as all functionally important parts need to be steel still. If you've got all the non-3D printed stuff you need to build one, you already have a gun.
Not to mention that in nations where you can legally get one the ammunition is the more important part of the license.

Re: The Firearms Thread
I see this as more for militia groups and terrorist cells. Legality isn't as much of a concern as availability, and the gun breaking down after a few thousand shots likewise isn't a concern. If you can make a few steel parts yourself, or buy them from someone off the books, then you can essentially manufacture fully-automatic firearms (which are illegal to own unless you have a loicense) as much as you want.Kugelfisch wrote: ↑Tue Apr 28, 2020 7:45 amUseless as long as all functionally important parts need to be steel still.

Sure, it's not really superior to a legal AR-15. The build quality is worse and it being fully-automatic isn't all that much of a benefit. Full auto is more of a movie meme. Most guns the military use fire in 2 or 3 shot bursts and they use LMGs for suppressive fire. But for terrorism, militia or combat against an oppressive regime, 3d printing could someday become very important.

They've probably already 3D-printed bullets to go along with their 3D-printed guns. Just fill them with stuff from Polish firecrackers.Kugelfisch wrote: ↑Tue Apr 28, 2020 7:45 amNot to mention that in nations where you can legally get one the ammunition is the more important part of the license.

Re: The Firearms Thread
My point is that this isn't an option for /noguns/ people. If SHTF getting a firearm won't be the most difficult thing and nobody gives a fuck about licenses. The benefit of being a legal gun owner in Germany for example is that you can stock up on ammunition. Good luck buying a couple of thousand rounds when shit's critical.

Building me an Xm177 clone, good ol Nam rifle just bought the parts off of gunbroker, now I'm searching a lower receiver, think I'll go Colt since they are the original producers bit can be a bit pricey, going with a 16 inch barrel, I'm not paying no 200$ stamp tax thats for sure.

Oh now that's pretty nice! My knowledge is mostly handguns but I can really appreciate that. I'd actually want to see a range video of that when you're done.

Not sure, seems like they do custom gun work judging from their website.

Looks like you wait a while to order anything. I've never actually seen one of their repros, but was looking at one a few years ago when I wanted to build an A1 clone.
