That's interesting. I would think that a machine capable of making arbitrary metal parts would very quickly be subjected to heavy government regulations?

- Wingman4l7 14y agoThe parent poster is probably referring to CNC milling machines. AFAIK, gun parts made on them are subject to the same regulation/registration as if they were purchased in a store or made in a machine shop. Also, using CNC machines takes skill -- they're not "set and forget" -- and I would imagine that the kind of people with said skill are smart enough not to tempt fate and make illegal gun parts.
- itmag 14y agoYeah, that's what I thought. My surprise was at the notion of set and forget machines for arbitrary metal parts.
