Fuck, the more I think on it, the more annoyed I become at the fact I need, at the bare minimum, 3 more guns: a shotgun, a DMR, and an SMG-style firearm. I say that for the last one because my MPA 9mm is fubar'd by a few new parts it needs. Mainly a new hammer and perhaps a new upper receiver since I accidentally dropped it and now it looks slightly bent causing issues when I charge the handle back with the bolt in the firearm.

Ye. Kinda busy rn but quote me there and I'll respond at some point.


Taken from the George Floyd protest thread.

I am curious as to whether your 3D printed firearms are rifled and if so, are the barrels metal/plastic/etc.?

I've been following development of the FCG-9 and it is an interest of mine so figured I'd ask.

The most common ones I have are mostly but not entirely 3D printed. IE printing a Glock frame and then slapping a parts kit in it or whatnot.

I do know a method for rifling a plastic printed barrel (apart from printing it with rifling) but I haven't tried i yet, and idk exactly how long they would last.

I have been researching guns a bit and it is my opinion that if you need a drum fed semi automatic shotgun to defend your home than you should probably move. Bet it would be good at defending yourself against a violent mob though.

Been looking into maybe doing a P80 though I was curious as to if I should make it a CC weapon or no and if so the potential legal ramifications of having to use it in a SD situation? Especially if it had no markings.

That I really can't comment on tbh. I mean, I'd assume it would be legal because you made it yourself, but PD would probably give you a hell of a headache over it if you had to use it.

Disagree. Any firearm from flintlock pistol to belt-fed M2 is a viable source of protection. Even if the neighborhood is considered "safe" there is always that threat that persists, for the firearm is a tool that can be used as form of deterrence for the potential threat to being used as a last resort for defense.

Hi there! Do you believe that the weight of small arms projectiles should be measured in pounds? Do you want a weapon that can protect your home against both burglars and charging Cape buffalo?

If so, have we got a deal for you!

Random question thrown up by a movie I'm watching. If a person is convicted of a felony and is banned from owning a gun and then they later get elected to a position like Sheriff, what happens? Can they carry?
