It’s just sensationalistic bullshit

For the amount of money, it would cost to print a gun you could afford to by a few guns legally and a small arsenal of guns illegally, all of which wouldn’t fall apart after just a few shots. It’s just sensationalistic bullshit... There was a mini documentary done on a guy that was trying to successfully print a durable trigger assembly of an AR-15 (which according to the documentary is the only part of the assault rifle that is tracked by a serial number). All the other pieces of the gun you could buy online and aren't tracked (again according to the doc). But you would still need about $10,000 for a printer not including the cost of the materials that the printer uses. We aren't talking about just using a makerbot to print out a burner.
Probably.

Also Chemda shouldn't watch Game of Thrones. She is just going to make fun of it and get all the Game of Throne nerds that listen to the show butt hurt. Wait I take it back Chemda should totally watch Game of Thrones, then talk about it on the show at length.
