Gun Control 2022 (IV) - Gun Rights, Control, & Government

Did America not have the printing press in 1791? I feel like they did because they mentioned a free press. But maybe I'm wrong.

September 25, 1639
US #857 was issued on this date in 1939 for the 300th anniversary of this event. On September 25, 1639, the first printing press in America was set up in Cambridge, Massachusetts Bay Colony.

They should pass a law only allowing Hand made firearms to be legal.

No but I can't kill with it

I personally look forward to when we can create x-men.

I'm torn between invisibility, rapid healing (AKA, wolverine), and phasing through objects. All of those could be really useful.

The civilian market will most likely be limited to something like the blur spell.
For something like claws, the Department of Condescending Paternity will no doubt mandate that they be manicured, or manufactured within safety scissor specifications, and you will of course be cited for running while your claws are deployed.

Meanwhile, this should get interesting.

The distributors should mail everyone in NYC a free muzzleloader.

That sounds fun, like something I would do if it weren't illegal for me to do so.

Aren't all firearms technically all hand made?

Would 3D printing a firearm still be classed as handmade? I'm asking out of curiosity.

I don't see why not, as one would still have to assemble the fire controls, install a barrel, etc.

It's going to be extremely challenging to forge steel out of iron ore by hand.

The method of manufacture has ABSOLUTELY NO IMPACT on the lethality or rate of fire of the weapon.

You can buy material at stores like Home Depo but that is it.

It will impact the avaliablity, prior to the industrial revolution making weapons was very hard and thats the point. Force people to make it the old way and you will see the rate of guns being sold drop dramatically.

Or we could just not, because this is an idiotic idea.

Or we can because weapons should be a state issue not a federal one, pro gunners can't just go somewhere they know their views are accepted always have to go mess shit up for those who don't want to deal with the gun madness. Deciding to live in the most expensive city in the country that didn't have laws you like but instead of going to cheaper place they threw a fit.

So if I had store and sold parts, that would be fine, if it was hand assembled by the consumer, and I wasn't doing the assembling.

Nope, still idiotic, rights are very distinctly not a state issue, hence the whole constitution thing.

Making weapons wasn't hard prior to the industrial revolution. A random source suggests a rifle during the revolutionary war was about 2 british pounds.

https://ancientfinances.com/2021/06/16/ ... vel-times/

Plugging that into an inflation calculator from 1776 until 2021, you get 228.85 pounds.

https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/monetar ... calculator

Google says 1 british pound is 1.21 US dollars, so that's $276.91 USD.

Which... is actually less than what rifles cost today.

Making guns prior to the industrial revolution was very easy. When they were introduced to Japan the first swordsmith ordered to make copies had no issues doing it with the exception of a singular part that used a production method unknown to the Japanese, and when the Dutch taught him how to do it he cranked them out with ease.
