Oh hey, yet another article perpetuating the narrative that Luigi is guilty. Must be a day of the week that ends in 'y'.

If it's so legal, why we don't have the stl for it ?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 21 hours ago

We do. There are Glock frame stls everywhere. I didn't look into this as I've fallen out of the print shoot repeat community cause of arthritis keeping me from enjoying it. But there are no less than a hundred files luigi could have gotten from a certain "odd to see" website.

Making your own firearms has always been legal in America. And it's not exactly easy. Even 3D printed guns take a lot of work.

Strictly speaking, if you want a reliable firearm you are much better off getting one made out of steel than composite plastics.

I did a p80 build and would consider it more reliable than anything made in layers, and it is still collecting non existent dust in a safe cause of its issues. But Glocks are considered the gold standard of reliability and they are plastic lowers.

Most 3D printed guns use commercially available parts for the pressure bearing components.

A 3D printed Glock uses a slide and barrel bought from Glock. The only 3D printed part is the frame, which is the only part that has to be serialized.
