(CNN)Not long ago, it was the stuff of science fiction, but now US officials and lawmakers are grappling with a new reality -- the ability for citizens to print firearms at home.

A gun rights group that posted plans for 3D guns blocked downloads from its website Tuesday after a federal judge sided with states that the postings could help criminals and terrorists manufacture such weapons.

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-05-2008 = Infuriating $12 call to non-English-speaking consulate appointment-setter.

No doubt.  It is interesting how the media (mostly the biased Left media) is reporting this as a gun rights issue.  It is not a gun rights issue.

Not illegal to make your own guns.

The judge that issued the injunction is an idiot. The injunction prevented Cody from putting the download links on his website. Codieisfreespeech.com picked the ball and published them for him.

 

Thousands of downloads already, and spreading.

Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day.  Deport him and you never have to feed him again.

I started out with nothing, and I still have most of it.

I went bald but I kept my comb.  I just couldn't part with it.

My name is not Richard Edward but my friends still call me DickEd

I fired myself from cleaning the house. I didn't like my attitude and I got caught drinking on the job.

Carrots improve your vision.  Alcohol doubles it.

A dung beetle walks into a bar and asks " Is this stool taken?"

Breaking news.  They're not making yardsticks any longer.

Hemorrhoids?  Shouldn't they be called Assteroids?

If life gives you melons, you might be dyslexic.

If you suck at playing the trumpet, that may be why.

there is no law about making your own gun, but there are regulations for what is acceptable to make and what isn't.

My husband's boss has been 3D printing some stuff for me (mostly little statues) as he's learning how to use it.. it's really easy to screw stuff up..

 

But a couple things I pointed out to them: 1) it's illegal to make a bomb or drugs, but you can find how to do that and nutcases do it all the time online. It'll be no different with a gun.. so a judge doing this stops nothing.

 

2) I'm wondering if it's slightly overconcern. The devices required to properly make a fullscale 3D gun (note not just mere parts) would be extremely expensive devices with a big learning curve. It would have to be constructed properly to ensure the gun could actually fire without incident.

 

3) And largely it's to my understanding that it's not a literal blueprint to a gun, but merely just component parts that still must be mated to bolts, a barrel, have working triggers and stocks, and other stuff. The Liberator model is the closest thing that could literally be a printed gun, but it still requires additional parts.

 

4) This is all not cheap, so I don't believe the average gang-banger or gang is going to have a machine mass producing guns in their basements. Bigger baddies though? Hard to say.  Not even the person who invented the tech thinks this would be a very long term viable way to make a firearm. https://www.popularmechanics.com/military/weapons/a22604405/3d-printed-guns/
