On today’s episode of ‘Uncanny Valley,’ we discuss how WIRED was able to legally 3D-print the same gun allegedly used by Luigi Mangione, and where US law stands on the technology.
But 3D-printed guns vary a lot. Some models — like the 3D-printed gun company Defense Distributed’s “Liberator” — can be made almost entirely on a 3D printer.
"In the era of 3D printing, we must do the same for downloadable guns and accessories." A 3D-printed “machinegun conversion device” (orange) is installed in a 3d-printed Glock-style pistol for ...
Some models - like the 3D-printed gun company Defense Distributed's "Liberator" - can be made almost entirely on a 3D printer. Others require many additional parts, which are often metal.
BBC Trending has investigated the global spread of 3D-printed guns across social media platforms including Telegram, Facebook and Instagram, as well as websites offering how-to guides.
A group called Defense Distributed posted plans online in 2013 for the “Liberator,” one of the first 3D-printed guns, a crude, single-shot model that used a nail as a firing pin.
3D printers used across U.S. to make switches. 3D printing is the process of building three-dimensional objects by layering materials using computer-aided design models, according to 3D printing ...
