You can not replicate a handgun that is common for example, they are not advanced enough, look up the handguns they would never work for conceal carry.
The weapon will expire and break down alot quicker than a regular weapon, there are reasons they are made with metal parts, for example the magazines they started making for AR's are only capable of lasting about 200 rounds - I believe, may not be an accurate number but I know it was pretty low.

Yes but none of the info in any way negates the dangers that concern people, as a matter of fact it only adds to the fears.
This would be the perfect way for criminals to creat untraceable, easy to dispose weapons. You don't have to worry about buying from a licensed dealer, background checks or registrations. You wouldn't have to worry about metal detectors and you could build a small army of terrorists easily.
I'm not worried about gun enthusiasts or collectors.
