As soon as I read your comment, I had to double check the source. The headline sounds to stupid to be true...

Here we are then.

"Being true" is not a very high bar these days for what sounds "stupid."

😉

And I’m looking forward to the NY definition or, better yet, their list, of 3D printers that are firearm capable. It’ll reduce my research time & effort.

Are we going to need fingerprints and a criminal background check to purchase a metal lathe and a mill?

I’ll have my wife buy it. After 40 years as a medical transcriptionist, she has virtually no fingerprints!

Thankfully my gun printer is grandfathered in. It’s a dot matrix handgun printer.
