Get the right FFL and SOT and so forth squared away, serialize a metal plate, and then feed a two-liter bottle into a hot glue gun from the dollar store and build your lower around the plate.

>>64323643
It depends on the state. Federally there's no requirement for firearms to be serialized unless they're sold. Some states just require a serial number, others require the serial number to be inscribed by an FFL and registered with the state.

Oh, I missed that OP wanted to make a machine gun. The simple way to do it is to just print a super safety, the complicated way is to get a type 7 FFL and class 2 SOT, and extra complicated way is to get a type 8 FFL and class 1 SOT, then make your gun in another country and import with a statement of intent from a government agency.

There are devices that simulate full auto, forced reset triggers, binary triggers, many designs are available to print, more than are commercially manufactured. They are arguably legal, rare breed settled a lawsuit with the atf that only their frts are legal, but super safeties are different, and while the atf doesn't like them they aren't illegal. Yet.

>>64323812

Do tell, what do you think is so different about a fully automatic lower compared to a plain old semi automatic lower that it would require a specialized printer? Assuming you want to print an AR, PLA+ out of an Ender 3 will do just fine. You dont need anything extra special. If you wanna make full auto, all it is is just an extra pin hole and maybe another label near the selector if you want to be fancy.

Barrel is short, concealed. The one pictured only has a 3.5" - 4" barrel, almost entirely concealed by the handguard, you can barely see the tip sticking out. He only had 6 rounds left in the gun after a day of fishing and plinking. They are perfectly legal is semi-auto, in the United States you can legally build any firearm you can legally own, with tax related caveats that prevent you from pumping out machine guns for fun. You also can't build a gun for the express purpose of selling it or giving it away, that'd make you a manufacturer, and that requires license and additional taxes to pay.

They do have barrels, usually in the us just a short g19 barrel that doesn't come past the handguard because those are cheap and easy. He probably only had six because he was out shooting the rest, or he just stole one or two out of a few unattended boxes.

They're legal as semi autos in states that don't prohibit pmfs, but his had a stock so was an unregistered sbr federally and cali doesn't like ghost guns.

Here's a comparison. "Onyx" is Markforged's proprietary carbon-filled nylon, "Markforged" is the same filament but with continuous fiber reinforcement. Expect anything that you print to perform more like Onyx than any of the other materials here. Depending on what filament you use, it might be much worse.

I want to second OP's question; what would the ideal printer for firearm components be? I've had people recommend checking r/fosscad, but I don't have a r*ddit account and it doesn't exist anymore anyway, so now that I'm caught up on my mortgage and itching to make a dumb financial decision, what do I piss my money away on? This printer would also be supplementing a cheapo Chinese mini mill and small lathe that I'm also looking to replace at some point. The end goal is to have a pretty decent home shop setup in my garage.

>>64325124
Voron or Ratrig. Or if you're serious about wasting money, Stratasys or Markforged.

>>64325124
You're not looking for anything special, just a normal consumer-tier 3D printer. Consider anything from Bambulabs, or Prusa if you hate money, avoid the real chinkshit brands unless you want 3D printing to be your new hobby. Nothing wrong with the cheapshit printers but they're not tools, they're projects. It's like cars, you don't buy a vintage muscle car when you're looking for a reliable fuel-efficient commuter, and you don't buy a Prius as a project car. Pretty much any modern enclosed printer is perfectly suitable for 2A shit. Avoid the filament trap, retards think every newly announced retarded "engineering" filament will be the greatest thing ever for 2A, they (foreigners and children mostly) love to fight about what filament to use for any given thing and they never know what the fuck they're talking about.

>>64325198
>Voron or Ratrig
It's 2025 bud, it seems you've missed the past few years. Markforged is holding on by a thread, you won't encounter them outside of a university, we phased out our last ones at work in 2023. Stratasys only makes sense on paper if your revenue ends with a b. You don't have to waste your life on a project or spend the price of a house to have a decent printer anymore, you can get off-the-shelf printers at half the price of a self-made Voron that'll outperform it.

Bambulabs makes very nice printers that work right out of the box with very little effort, very consumer friendly, highest value for money of any big brand. Big drawback, they're a totally closed ecosystem that sends your data back to Mao. Prusa makes extremely good printers, but they're not made in China, so they're extremely overpriced if you only look at the hardware itself. However, they put a huge amount of effort into refinement. These motherfuckers were winning awards back when they were still zip-tying bearings on. Completely open ecosystem with very few exceptions, huge community involvement and acceptance. People suck Joseph Prusa's cock uncontrollably, insane fanbase. These are the two brands I recommend above all others by a wide margin, especially for a first printer.

Prusa Core One is $1200 assembled, MK4S is $929 assembled, the XL is $2,000.
Bambu A1 is $350, P1S starts at $550, X1C from $800, and the newer H2S and H2D from $1250 and $2000.
I don't how tariffs and shit affect the current situation.

All worth looking at depending on your price range and opinions of the Chinese as opposed to the bearded Czech cult-leader. Both are fine.

Since I know any gyrojet design isn't of any real use for much of anything unless it has features the ATF doesn't like, like explosive penetrating rounds or massive projectiles about their 12.7mm limit. None of which I'm willing to do. Despite being so cool.

It wasn't a joke. 3d printing is much weaker than injection molding in general. Also, "carbon reinforced" filaments aren't stronger. The fiber fill isn't to reinforce the material, it's to stabilize it and reduce bending and warping. It increases the stiffness and makes some filaments more printable, but it reduces impact strength and layer adhesion and does nothing to increase tensile strength. Awesome new filaments like PPA-CF are just now approaching what's been possible with injection molding for half a century.

I was listening to a podcast about the war in Myanmar mainly for fcg9 content and they mentioned that their main issue was the lack of air superiority. They could win on the ground, but it didn't matter when the junta forces could then just bomb them.

It made me wonder if a diy anti air solution might be possible. Manpads are right out, pretty hard for industrialised nations to produce, flak shells while easier still aren't feasible. Would it be possible to make a computerized targeting scope though? Plug in the caliber and barrel length, laser rangefinder to get distance and calculate elevation, if it could get bearing and speed somehow it could crunch the numbers and put a dot where you needed to shoot to hit the plane. Planes do take small arms fire in war, generally without too much effect, but if there were groups of people with accurate fire they might be able to take some down.

I don't want zero-dollar taxes because that's a defacto registry. Same with suppressors. An 11.5" AR should be on the sales rack next to 16" and 20" ARs like ordinary firearms. A short AR with a can running subsonics is the ideal home defense weapon.

>laser rangefinder
The range of an aircraft is always changing even if it's moving perpendicular to you so the laser would need to be constantly tracking.
Not impossible but you'd need some kind of simplified sight with pre-marked holdovers and a user who won't hesitate. Have the plane in the laser rangefinder crosshair, get the distance and rough aspect angle, pick the correct holdover for the given estimates and pull the trigger within a second.
With a fliegerfaust the shotgun effect and slight delay between launches compensates for slight error.

>>64334773
The laser return changing with the plane's relative position might provide enough data points to gather velocity and direction as well as range. If the laser were independent of the rifle, maybe pointed by a second operator, and held on target I think with enough programming that could send the correct hold to the rifle scope.

Right, with a gyro sensor you could track the angle change (like the NLAW) and with a correct range you could automate the holdover.
But at that point you're also accurately tracking the position so you could straight up make a missile guide itself towards the target as long as you keep the track until impact.

3d printing seems like the wrong tool for AA fire. Anything smaller than a rifle round isn't going to do much to a plane and you get into pressure concern territory with that.

For a targeting display the only thing I can think of would be some 3D printable attachment that combined a mini RADAR/rangefinder with a programmable sight/GOPRO screen overlay that tells you where you need to lead your shots to hit a plane. The whole thing would be an entire engineering project for something only slightly better than having a second or third dude spraying down a plane, though

>>64342738
It's a battle of the copes so leave your feelings aside, but the Taliban got slaughtered for sport by kids trying to pay for college or a Dodge Charger.
"Oh yeah we developed tactics to evade air strikes" okay but you still took tens of thousands in losses whenever the Americans stopped shooting back and whipped out their phones. Everyone posting in these threads thinks they'll be the austere religious scholar who takes credit for victory at the end, and not one of the thousands of fat retards who'll be used as A-10 or MQ-9 fodder. I do not want to hear about their tactics because they don't actually work.
Taliban tactics basically assume time is on your side, the enemy is a democratic country that can be easily distracted or turn against policy the populace supported, and you live in such a fucking hopeless shithole that you can keep recruiting even when you're getting clobbered and when the enemy leaves everyone who was neutral automatically flips to your side.
To collapse your own country's state you actually would want to do it as fast as possible because a cascade collapse can lead to change while taking too long allows the state to entrench itself and get more control over institutions that could turn against itself. And also spare your own people from prolonged pain. If the state is authoritarian they won't care if the repression is unpopular, repression will continue until morale improves. If people have actual jobs and businesses they'll tell you to fuck off and stop hiding your FGC-9s behind their dumpsters, they won't have to join you out of economic desperation. Also Islamic insurgencies did get worldwide donations funneled through religious organizations so they could actually offer economic incentive to join, and at a deep enough level worldwide Jihad is actually an unironic grift. If you're a true and honest freedom fighter at most you'll get a few memecoins from tards on twitter.

I was thinking more lidar, I'm not sure what range you could get with a small radar device, and it would be an engineering project but even vaugly accurate I imagine it would be better than a few guys taking pot shots. It's hard to shoot at steep angles, gravity impacts velocity more than drop in those cases, so you have to guess your new zero, you'd also need to properly lead the target. Tracers might be the only thing that makes it feasible, I'm not really conversant on the subject.


Thanks for brainstorming this with me anons, I think it is deserving of more research.

>>64335573
How about if you put the rifle on a gimbal and let the computer aim and fire based on the data it was fed by the targeting device by the operator? If it's attached to the rifle you can't aim at the correct position and keep a target lock. If the human element is removed from firing a fixed and laser guided gun the operator just needs to paint the target, and he'll know if he's on or not. At that point you'd just need to worry about wind conditions and if your slug could travel high enough.

I'm looking for a 3d printed lower with the following features:

Rails for a laser / VFG. Mag holder and rails would be awesome but not mandatory.
Folding stock.
9mm pistol-type chassis.
Rails for RDS not needed.

Anyone got any suggestions? Been eying the Corser 5 PDW G17 but open to other recommendations.

A CNC mill. God you kids are retarded. You can't "print" a gun part. If you're gonna make it out of plastic, make a mold then fill it with glass filled nylon. Polymer fabrication is already a whole field.

Anyone make a fossberg? It was the easiest build I've done until I pumped it and the follower sproinged out. Still not sure what the issue is.

>>64354919
What variant are you dealing with? The Fossberg was a half-finished project for a long time, several "versions" floating around don't actually work correctly, can't be built to completion, or require parts from other related guns. Issues are common, examples that run well are rare. I highly recommend the PY2A 500/88, the hardware is cheap, it actually works very well, and it'll far outlast a Fossberg build.

>>64354077
It's basically impossible to get actual rounds, everyone uses sketchy unsafe shit that's either visco fused, or will go off the moment it hits something, no matter what/how far.

The holy grail is a printable distance armed fuse with an out of alignment primer

>>64358999
Raspberry Pi-type gyroscope counter?

You'd basically have to install a sparker or bbq ignition system into each round that triggers off the gyro, but with unstable gunpowder compared to more-stable plastique that are drop-and-shoot safe.

I don't "freak out" I'm concerned for someone's well being. Printers just cannot create a material that is adequate for firearm stresses. And no, knowing your .22 lower can handle 80 shots before something disintegrates and it literally falls apart while firing is not safe.

>>64365415
An improvised plastic weapon is a single use tool for an emergency.

>>64365575
That isn't brought up much, but always seemed like it was good enough for the main legitimate use case. I.e. shooting less than seven rounds at a person or people trying to break into your home or do you grievous bodily harm.

>>64365301
Ah, I'd looked there but just saw files, went back and saw frames.

Don't get a bed slinger

>>64370119
exactly. enclosed core XY printers are the future.
the elegoo centauri carbon is the poorfags quality choice.

so ive been printing g19/17 frames to see what the various settings do IRL and how it feels in hand.

I've been doing
20 walls
5x line multiplier
100% infill
brim
arachne
tree supports
all in ABS. should this be good enough for a fuck around toy till i get my drier in and the ASA-CF and PA12-CF/zytel for serious use, like troll people at shooting matches?

Yeah probably, ABS doesn't have the best layer adhesion so they probably won't be as ststrong as good pla+ but if they feel solid they should run.

>>64371242
What's the ambient during the print? ABS is fine, if you're printing in an 80-100C enclosure. Open air, fuck no, no layer adhesion, trash.

>>64371485
Oddly enough since I got the centauri carbon, ABS has been great for me. with 20 walls and the rest its basically a solid lump of material at the end of print. I blew through rolls of it without a single failure and mostly printed a AWCY CZ Scorpion evo with ABS.

bruh just get a $500 cnc machine and mill it in those aluminum blocks you cast from the beercans leftover from last weeks BBQ. Just be sure to keep the feedrate nice and slow.

>>64373101
why tf would you use ABS when PLA-6/12 exists?

I mean, those boos makin switches with PLA and wonderin why the slide is glued shut do make funny titoks though.

bruh that nozzle is a .6 bet and they didn't even anneal the parts kek

>>64373391

have you priced it lately? thats why I've used ABS.

Haven’t tried printing serious gun parts, but storage for reloading dies and ammo boxes have been nice.

>>64373391
No annealing, good enough. That's the reason I use it.

wats the best way to print a glock frame? rails up, down or 45 degrees?

>>64374412

Rails up is best for dimensional accuracy where all the important bits go.

Rails down is for if you care about the bottom frame surfaces looking pretty.

Idk about 45deg.

I'm a nooby to 3d printing I just have a ender 3 v2-pro-whatever-edition and I make stuff from time to time. never had interest in 3d printing weapons I'd rather just buy a lathe and mill, 3d printed weapons are for countries that are severely locked down like germany, in the US it's totally legal to make your own weapons just not sell them.
anyways I've wanted to upgrade from my ender 3 to a bambu labs one, they're not even that expensive and from everything I've seen they're so much better it's not even funny, which makes sense considering the ender 3 is really outdated and uses a decade-old platform.
as for filament I guess PLA+, I think the one in your picture was designed for ordinary PLA since it's the cheapest and most available. there are stronger filaments (though exactly how "strong" is difficult to quantify as there are different axes of "strength" that matter more or less in firearms design and different companies don't use the same metrics) like CF reinforced though you have to modify your printer to use them

there used to be 3d printing generals on here but paranoid retards who don't understand the legality of homebuilt firearms brigaded them until they died out

Relatively recently several blue states have banned privately made firearms, mostly because of polymer80s ease of manufacture making them a favourite of gang members. Polymer80 was subsequently driven into bankruptcy by lawfare but leftists are still trying to expand the laws by leveraging 3d printing hysteria.

It's fun to make bespoke toys for my nephew, or replacement parts for things around the house, but it's hard to beat making a $500 gun out of a $200 parts kit.

>>64384954
They aren't. There's a handful of states that require home built firearms to be serialized by an FFL, but it's well established that the second amendment protects the right to manufacture a firearm oneself. That guy wasn't arrested for making a gun, he was arrested for concealed carrying an unregistered SBR without a permit.
