In the wake of Luigi Mangione’s alleged killing of a health care CEO with a partially 3D-printed pistol, we built and tested the exact same model of weapon ourselves. And it was entirely legal.

    Just playing devil’s advocate again, not seeking anything see resembling smoke. But if they sell them as incomplete lowers, that should be fine so long as they don’t include functional hardware.

      The 80% kits have been banned iirc. It’s all nonsense, but always be aware of the current local and federal laws before messing with this stuff

          Being able to purchase something doesn’t mean it’s legal.

                  Do you think people just get drugs or illegal guns or whatever as gifts?

                    I’m sorry homie!

                    What I said was rude, and uncalled for.

                    But guns are more regulated than I think you believe. Even in the fascist states.
