3D printed Ruger charger receiver

As demonstrated, making one with a cheap small-format 3D printer and some parts purchased on the internet (with no paperwork) is trivially easy.

    Interesting, from the color of the print I’d guess it’s PLA, most people use ABS for printed guns because PLA is a bit more likely to crack under strain, where as ABS will deform.

    It’ll be interesting how this ends. I doubt the end result will be the government throwing up their hands and saying “well, if you can’t track one you can’t track any!” More likely possession of such things will be mandatory fines and felony jail time.

    It is not illegal for a person to manufacture a firearm for himself. The ATF has stated this many times before in the 80% ar debates.

    It is only illegal to manufacture for sale to others, if you’re not properly licensed to do so.

    “More likely possession of such things will be mandatory”…

    I guess that’ll teach me not to read to the end of the sentence, eh Scotty?

    It’s also currently not illegal to open carry rifles in Texas.

    I am amused by the poll over there at LiveLeak.

    It asks “do you think every law abiding American has a right to do this?” – and the answers are slightly in favor of “no”.

    What amuses me, I think, is that probably every one of those “no” voters has no idea that it is, in fact, completely lawful – at least Federally – to manufacture a firearm for personal use.

    I doubt that will last long, given the stress the bolt stop pin inflicts on it’s hole with every shot.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
