Part C Subpart A of the [New York State 2026-2027] budget includes two particularly concerning provisions: §2.10 and 2.11. These threaten Class E felony charges for distributing or possessing 3D-printer files that would produce firearm parts with a 3D printer or CNC machine.
The first provision, 2.10, makes it a felony to sell or distribute files that can produce major firearm components to someone who is not a federally and NY-licensed gunsmith. Under 2.11, it’s also a felony to possess these files if you intend to illegally print a firearm or share them with someone you believe is not permitted to own or smith a firearm.
A journalist reporting on 3D-printed guns. A researcher studying printable firearms. An artist incorporating parts into a new work commenting on gun culture. Under these provisions merely sharing a print file with any of them could result in criminal charges, even if no one involved intends to assemble a firearm.
Criminalizing information doesn’t work. Someone intent on illegally printing a firearm is already subject to charges for that act. Adding felony liability for simply possessing a file or design piles on additional charges while doing nothing to stop printing. New charges for someone distributing these files won’t make them inaccessible to lawbreakers, but they will have a chilling effect on legitimate and entirely legal work.
Unsurprisingly, a similar law was proposed and subsequently scrapped in Colorado due to First Amendment concerns. We recommend New York do the same.

Biden & Harris & Democrats & left wing depraved indifference and violence: Shocking Undercover Videos Expose Horrors of Joe Biden’s Unaccompanied Child Trafficking Scandal.
“The horrors that migrant children endured during Joe Biden’s years as president can never be forgiven, nor forgotten. No, not the endless kids he sniffed – the ones that were trafficked across the southern border, thanks to his incompetent, inhumane administration.
During Biden’s four years, 448,000 unaccompanied alien children, or UACs, entered America. Most traveled through Mexico and crossed the southern border, sent by their parents. Alone, to be shepherded by drug cartel-affiliated coyotes.
Townhall Media has obtained a series of undercover videos produced after an in-depth investigation of organizations that received millions of dollars from Biden’s Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR).
