Oh shock horror. People will be able to make home-made firearms. Who'd have thunk it possible?

Re: How to make a homemade semi - auto rifle.
"The Ghost Gunner is programmed to mill the lower receiver of an AR-15 type rifle - the key section that holds the weapon's moving parts, such as the trigger, firing pin and magazine."
Oh FFS! Really?
1) The lower does not contain the firing pin.
2) The lower is just a frame, which house certain things. Not like the printer makes a complete firearm.
Fuss about nothing IMO. Crap, uninformed journalism again.

Re: How to make a homemade semi - auto rifle.
someone please explain that the lower is only the "core compnent" in the US as that is the part that is licensed. it doesn't make the barrel, upper, etc which one can buy as parts kits in the US but not anywhere else

Guys, the article is not about facts. It's written to get the sheep bleating in worry. With sheep being sheep, it's working.

Re: How to make a homemade semi - auto rifle.
Yea I started posting that earlier then realised it's all crap.
If you have a milling machine and maybe a lathe you can make a machine gun. This is not news. It's been the case for a long time. If you want accuracy you want a rifled barrel but at hijack distance you don't even need that.
And that is why gun control is BS.

Re: How to make a homemade semi - auto rifle.
There are folks in America reportedly who made a submachine gun in their garage, using garage tools. Granted the result wasn't great, but it can be done if you're determined enough, it seems.
