There are models of gun that have come out in the last few years, these almost fully 3D-printed semi-automatic rifles, that truly look like something out of science fiction that are really powerful and really accurate.
In March, Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg sent letters to 3D printing companies urging them to implement stronger safeguards to prevent the creation of such weapons. His office is also in discussions with platforms that host blueprint files to address related concerns.
In a letter to Creality, D.A. Bragg called on the company to install in its printers an available 3D-printing software program which detects the shapes of common gun parts and blocks their printing.
The Harlet .22 pistol was designed by a member of the Black Lotus Coalition. It’s evolved quite a bit over the years and the Harlot eventually became the Harlet with its third incarnation. The 3D printing world is all about remixing and redesigning…

DOJ has not engaged with the additive manufacturing industry on strategies to impede the 3D printing of firearms, but many of the same strategies for addressing 3D printed GLOCK switches may be available.
We’ve finally gotten a look at the 3D printed silencer that the (alleged) killer of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson used
