minus-squareSupraMario@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·30 days agoYou can’t load a file on a 3d printer and print a gun either… On top of that, making a firearm is %100 legal.
minus-squareBad_Engineering@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up0·30 days agoYes it is 100% legal, I’ve done it myself. And there are actually single shot pistols you can download and print. I’m not in anyway in favor of the legislation, just pointing out that machining a functioning anything isn’t as easy as you said.
