Absolutely no need for this garbage..Only purpose is to evade detection..Ugly as hell to boot..
Isn't it interesting that this isn't a 2A issue, but rather a 1A issue?
They are trying to shut down freedom of speech, not right tobear arms with this one, even if they don't realize it.
I am pro-2nd amendment, however, undetectable guns are not a good thing. The terrorists of the world get their hands on that stuff, and it will only be a matter of time.....
TSA has already found a couple 3D printed guns. If the mouth breathers at TSA can find them they are quite detectable, mainly because they look like a gun shape. Remember the undetectable glock 17 of the 1980’s? Planes were falling from the sky because of the misconception that a polymer gun would not be detected at airports. Hype! I wouldn’t have the balls to pull the trigger on one of these things anyway, I’m certain a face full of plastic would result along with missing digits.Even if people want to produce these the up front cost is rather significant. You have to by the printer, buy the material, develop the weapon which is going to take a fair amount of trial and error. It would be far easier, cheaper, and more reliable to make a zip-gun. As far as airports, which is what I think we are talking about here, that is what the screenings are for. I don't see them getting anything very complicated by the x-ray unit so that means likely single shot. They better make it count because someone on that plane is going to get up and stop them after the shot.
Since 2016, TSA, has confiscated four 3-D printed guns. Looks like people are searching for ways to get them onto an airplane.
I beg to differ on this. Our founding fathers were rebels with a cause. The cause was freedom from an oppressive government. And I believe the term referred to in A2 is "militia", not army. And wasn't militia at that time meant as a citizen group of armed men?Personally, I think the 3D printed gun thing is much ado about nothing. You'd be about as well served with a homemade musket.
Regarding the Second Amendment, misunderstandings proliferate. It was written with the sole intent of providing for a standing army at a point in time wherein the nation possessed none. This has obviously since become obsolete.
Well Joe, in all fairness it looks like they failed four times. We don't know how many times they have succeeded. People have ended up getting normal guns through security when they accidentally left them in bags, but I don't know the rate that happens. People are highly unlikely to report getting a gun through airport security successfully, whether intentional or accidental.
As for the box cutter comment - that worked once because people were sheep. Nobody would be able to take over a plane today with box cutters because the passengers will no longer comply with hijackers.
