Cool. I want one.
detailed plans for lower receivers are available all over the internet and more and more people have access to CNC machines now, so this is not surprising. The rest of the parts, uppers, etc, are all available without checks and are not serialized.
I guess some people expect the democrats who now have more power than ever to make it illegal for honest, law-abiding citizens to own guns and to deliberately allow criminals to have guns.
What gives them that idea?
All you'd need is a small machine shop in your garage and you'd be up and running. People probably need to understand, however, that all the usual restrictions apply: no machine guns or other guns that would make Schumer's panties bunch up. Not saying I agree with it (I definitely do not). Just saying you'll be opening yourself up to prosecution if you start manufacturing machine guns in your garage or anywhere else that's trying to fly under law enforcement's radar.
Too bad News10 did a story like this. I now expect that there will be other news stories and the legislature will step in to try and put a stop to it.
It seems that with CNC machine tools, one can make one’s own gun simply by renting the time on a machine that is programmed for it, and being the one to press the “start” button.
Very clever.
My father helped me build a wicked long hunting knife in the garage with nothing more than 1960s technology and a worn out 18" long steel file that he gotten at a garage sale for a quarter.
Yep.
If people would quit fixating on making an AR-15, they could make many quality guns with nothing more than a simple lathe. If they’re willing to invest a fair bit of time, they could make a passable gun with a drill press and a bunch of hand files.
If people get off their plush posteriors and started reading (there’s that word again) about older single-shot guns from the 1880’s to 1900 or so, they’d find that there were many falling/rolling block designs one can make pretty easily without much in the way of machine tooling. All you’d really need to buy would be a barrel. You’ll need to buy a chamber reamer, but you can ream a chamber by hand, you can make all the cuts needed by hand, and if you clamp rather than thread the barrel into the receiver, you might not even need a lathe.
Certainly an interesting article, but why go through the trouble of setting up a machine shop when all the ammo, guns and armaments you’ll ever need are sitting there for the taking?
Come on, guys. Do you really believe that the forecasters at the National Weather Service will be shooting cop-killer bullets out their arses and hitting targets at 500 meters?
It’s a wonderful place and the guys who own it are extremely nice and helpful!

After Hurricane Katrina, everyone should have a copy on hand.
