You can make your own springs by wrapping piano wire around a dowel
Sorry for the delay. I know what you mean. The last time I had a Congressman I voted for was in the early 80’s!
P.S. — St Hugh of Lincoln.
I think it was in the Karate Kid original movie, it was mentioned that the Okinawans were forbidden from having swords and spears, so they developed karate - fighting with their bare hands. Dn't know if this is true. But anyway, despotic governments never learn, that people will find the way to arm themselves, somehow, some way. Obamites may stop us from buying arms, but we'll make our own.

Direct Metal Laser Sintering - I don’t know if the result is suitable for use in a magazine, what little I know about sintered metal is that it might be too brittle, but these things are progressing rapidly.

Guess what? It doesn’t matter what you think they should have the power to do. The technology is here and you can’t stop it. Neener neener neener!
“What does this mean? Was it a 30 or 86 round mag they printed?”
It was a 30 round mag, but I think they just fired 86 rounds using the printed mag in that videotaped test.
Springs are nothing but mandrel bent piano wire.
Yep.
Just bend it *once*. Pud easy.
Sounds too me like a candidate for home making frangible bullets.
Very soon I expect people will come up with a new 3D printed caseless ammo, whole thing is printed, fill with powder and add primer. A longer lighter bullet because the case is part of the bullet, and it disintegrates upon impact, nothing but sintered metal fragments, much like the new varmint bullets.
Please take me off your ping list. thnx
Done.

Yeah... worked so well after the Volstead Act, didn’t it?
Yep. There wasn’t a dry I in the house. Or senate.
