Technically it’s for any printer capable of printing a firearm or the components of a firearm, which is…. every printer. What a bafflingly stupid proposal. If you’re in NY, please call your reps and tell them to oppose this bill.

    You can also technically make a gun with generic plumbing supplies or you could finagle one with random garbage and a drill bit.

        You can fuck someone up real good with a 2X4 ( pronounced two be fore ). Yet I haven’t had to pay for a 2x4 ownership license.

        You can also really fuck someone up with a big bag of shit…be it actual shit or rocks or concrete or just a bunch of shit from Good will (which could included actual shit). Where do we apply for big bags of shit at the DMB?

        and then they use that info to perform a credit check to ensure you’re not a “risk” to let into the store

        Yeah, a dude actually made a ton of money during a gun buyback, by making cheap pipe guns. The buyback program had a flat amount as the bare minimum, meant to entice people to turn their firearms in. It was like $200 minimum. He made dozens of $5 single-shot pipe guns, and turned them all in. And since they were technically functioning firearms, the program was forced to pay out.

          LOL, and I got downvoted for saying the gun buybacks are stupid. People turn in crappy/broken guns for money to buy a better gun. Hell, I have 3 or 4 I’d ditch. Maybe more if you offered me $200 each.

          Kinda odd and you can see it in my comments, but yesterday I made a Lynch reference.

          Then I talk about David Fincher, but since I always mix those two Davids up I was very consciously not typing Lynch later.

          That was all before news went public so needless to say he was on my mind a lot of yesterday. Very Lynchian.
