3D printers

There are a bunch of problems with making guns from a 3-d printer.

First they would be illegal because there is no seriel number.

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.
