:lol: Derspeiss is now worried that the government is going to start take away a new type of gun that only one person in the country has!

Well, you are.  Also, there's no reason a plastic barrel, case and bullet need too weak to contain a blast.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Its sad that the gun nuts have appropriated this technology for their own twisted ends.

No, you can save that for the family of the first person that gets killed by one of these guns.  Or would having sympathy for such a victim run contrary to your gun nut oath of allegiance?

Require a background check to own 3d printers then.  :lmfao:

Unaware of that. No secret handshake either. Despite what you "Anti-nutters" try to dream up. Maybe if you put your tin foil hat on it will become clearer.

No, but feel free to support your case.

If you can print a gun, you can print vest!

But can you print a tissue out of plastic? :hmm:

Maybe. Everything is in the realm of possibility with 3d printing.

Though probably won't out of plastic given that they are already printing organic veins and meat.
