Topic: 3D printing and guns.

Took little time after 3D printers came out, to when a gun could fire 6 shots, and break. Now they've designed one that can manage 600 shots at least.
Gun laws are becoming less relevant, and in the future shit like this is going to upend the economy.
Anyone else read Makers, by Cory Doctorow?

I've seen some videos of them printing AR-15 magazines. I like it.

I'm semi-impressed. You still can't make a barrel or most of the mechanism with 3d printing. But 3d printed high capacity mags are win.

You can print the receiver, which you need a licence for.
