Though Caleb has a point about hyperbolic reactions, I think he may be mistaking the lack
of a big deal it is to him with impact on the rest of the world.
In terms of confidence about the fact that this won't impact legislation, Rep. Steve
Israel already taken the opportunity to garner greater support for his Undetectable
Firearms Modernization Act at the announcement Defense Distributed made on Friday (see

Caleb on HackaDay.com has a good article on the
topic:
The first 3d printed gun has been fired, and I don’t care.

they use a very high end printer for this, also
looks like the firing chamber is expendable? All designs I've seen use regular ammo,
no way to print it due to low weight and inertness of extrusion material. you're
basically better off with a nail, rubber band, drill, file, some 3/8" steel plumbing
and some .380 cartridges. these guys are just doing it to make a point i think, rather
than imposing a true game changer. in reality guns can be more easily made out of metal
with less expensive tools and much higher reliability, and so far it is legal to do so for
personal use. high capacity magazines would be a better application for disruptive
manufacturing via 3D printing. Also it looks like they use a regular injection molded
AR-15 grip in the video, which normally attaches with a metal screw. I wouldn't lose
any sleep over it, and I certainly wouldn't try shooting one of these plastic guns
offhand!
cheers,

http://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/sudo-discuss Since I haven't seen the plans I'm only
speculating, but
#1 lots of steps and tools other than just a 3d-printer. In the video you
can see atleast 10 -15 parts
#2 probably no traces of which 3d printer was used
#3 No. and I would be willing to bet you can only get 1 -2 shoots off
before you have to make a new one
#4 Maybe with enough time and the right plasic, but you probably need
someone way more expensive.
