This is 'murica. we use Webster's here.

(sorry. couldn't resist. you are correct. this isn't a solution.)

an Ender 3's print quality is too low to reliably handle any of the critical components, even for one or two uses. something like the defcad AR lower receiver (which is for some odd reason designated as "the firearm" under ATF regulations...) can absolutely be printed, but not reliably by an ender 3- at least not a stock ender 3. (the defcad team was using resin printers for the dimensional accuracy.)

in any case, you can go to any big box hardware store, drop around 30 bucks in plumbing parts and some quality time with a dremel will produce a fully automatic firearm. should we now regulate plumbing hardware?

“Three-dimensionally printed firearms, a type of untraceable ghost gun, can be built by anyone using a $150 three-dimensional printer,” Rajkumar wrote in a memorandum explaining the bill. “This bill will require a background check so that three-dimensional printed firearms do not get in the wrong hands.”

.... No way an ender 3 is going to produce something that doesn't blow up in your hand.

so. i suggest people get that 150 dollar lol-printer. Should take care of itself.
