ISIS thugs could soon be using 3D-printed machine guns that cost £100.
Ruthless Cody Wilson could put the lives of hundreds of innocent Brits at risk by handing terrorists the ability to build 3D weapons .
And the firearms fanatic was tonight branded irresponsible for boasting his world-first printable plastic weapon may be available within weeks - as fears grew that IS thugs may launch a Paris-style massacre on UK soil with them.

Who’s selling 3D printers to ISIS?
The Paris massacre did not happen.
Because machine guns are illegal in France.
Not just 3-D guns, but guns with no metal parts that could pass through security.
Why wouldn’t they simply wait for Eric Holder to ship them som M-82 Barret .50 cals..??
Would we call this PreCognitive Fast and Furious by selling the 3d printers instead of actual weapons.
So because ISIS has access to it, no one should have access to it?
Why print guns when you can buy an AKM on the black market for $200.00?

Maybe the Brits ought to not allow more unvetted Muslims into the country.
Given that these people make homemade weapons all the time then virtually any raw material export to a Muslim country should be banned.
the UK’s dying (dead) economy is trying to put the 3d genie of printed consumer products in the bottle.
It is not the weapon, but the vanishing need for manufacturing.
Why buy something when you can print it for 1/10th the cost?
Can you even run a 20 round magazine through an auto printed gun before it breaks?
Like they would use those instead of the better quality weapons brought in through Saudi financed Mosques.
Why bother? Stamping out AK-47s is the most heavily developed firearms manufacturing technology in the world. Smuggling them in is trivial.
Like security is looking for guns. They let terrorists through so why worry about guns? The talk about guns is meant to distract from talking about who the terrorists are that would use them. And the reason they let terrorists through is because they think the world is overpopulated and anything that decreases the population is actually good.
You can make a gun from the instructions you find on YouTube. You can make a suppressor out of a flashlight. If you make a shotgun from scratch, you can shoot almost anything out of it - provided you can get a hold of the casings. But then, you can make your own primers off instructions that you find on the internet.
You can make bombs easily. IEDs, homemade shrapnel grenades... it’s all right there.
You don’t have to go to the ‘darkweb’ or any secret sites. Heck, I’ve had such videos pop up unsolicited for my ‘suggestions’ just by browsing interesting chemistry and science videos. I was interested in ancient forges - that took me to sword and knife making - that led me to making gun powder out of urine - and *boom*. The suggestions came up all on their own.
The knowledge is loose and no government is going to put the genie back in the bottle.
If evil people want to do evil things, they’ll find a way. All we can do is allow the private citizen the ability to defend themselves.
Its more like 10x the price for 1/10x the quality for most printed parts.
Unvetted is an interesting word. Does that mean the poor ones have to upgrade their cars before they come here?
Hard to argue with your points.
