    Ban what exactly? The CADD files? Force printer manufacturers to create code that will recognize a gun and tell the printer not to print?


    Say you did ban the CADD files; you're still going to have the individual part files leak out. People who really want to will still print pieces and assemble the gun.

    And 3d printers, while becoming more popular, especially with model toy/figurine hobbyists, are still expensive toys. Filament to create the pieces has come down in price, and is reasonable, but a large amount of plastic would be needed for any rifle to be printed (and a rifle would have to be printed in pieces anyway).


    To me, this is an overblown issue that should have been handled with much better care. Kinda like everything else the Trump administration has done.

      We ban printers from printing anything with the eurion constellation. So, yeah?

        While it's probably a quick cure to curb the casual printing, the problem I see is that anyone with CADD software can go into the file and edit out the constellation, circumventing the printer protection. It's not like a color copier where it's scanning a real world AR-15 (with the EURion Constellation stamped on it for example) and creating a copy of a physical item.

        Unless they're going to get AutoDesk, Bentley Systems, and the other almost 200 CADD companies to get on board with using the same digital watermark system (from Digimarc) that Adobe CS (and newer) and Paint Shop Pro 6 (and newer) use to prevent the printing of bank notes from their software. But, that still doesn't stop the piecemeal printing of pieces and the user assembling all the parts. All it does is delay the inevitable.

          Huh, I had no idea what the eurion constellation was until 10 minutes ago. Learn something new everyday.

          Also, 3D printed guns are a terrible idea.

              Soo...we should do nothing because you 'don't know what to ban'? I'm guessing the government can figure that out.

              Congrats to gun supporters here which due to the trivialization of 3d puts them to the right of even Donald Trump on the matter.

              So 3d bump stocks are being produced today...the same ones legislatures have been working to make illegal. Do we really need another avenue for Russian hackers to perfect and distribute to American criminals?

              Sorry but regressives can't be trusted on matters of life or death - as with Iraq, they can't see past today.

                LOL

                3D Bump Stocks. Awesome. Now every semi is an automatic.

                No problems here folks. Nothing to see.

                  Oh, there's a purpose, and it is exactly the same as one that is manufactured by other means. And they actually work. It's using technology against the technocracy, pretty much the only true way to beat them.

                                The article explains it and it isnt a hustle. They are wasting their resources on the lawsuit with Cuomo. On top of that they cant get insured and are having other issues. They have blown through a lot of money.

                                In the new document — an amended complaint filed in U.S. District Court in late July — the NRA says it cannot access financial services essential to its operations and is facing “irrecoverable loss and irreparable harm.”

                                Specifically, the NRA warns that it has lost insurance coverage — endangering day-to-day operations. “Insurance coverage is necessary for the NRA to continue its existence,” the complaint reads. Without general liability coverage, it adds, the “NRA cannot maintain its physical premises, convene off-site meetings and events, operate educational programs … or hold rallies, conventions and assemblies.”

                                The complaint says the NRA’s video streaming service and magazines may soon shut down.

                                “The NRA’s inability to obtain insurance in connection with media liability raises risks that are especially acute; if insurers remain afraid to transact with the NRA, there is a substantial risk that NRATV will be forced to cease operating.” The group also warns it “could be forced to cease circulation of various print publications and magazines.”
                                That isnt trying to get Jim Bob to donate more cash, that is them threatening to shutter the doors. I bet they took a serious bath on NRAtv and now thei ridiculous fight with regulators is stretching them thin. Add in that insurers see them a serious threat and oopsie.


                                Thoughts and prayers...
