Any bets on how long before they get some sort of printed plastic projectile to fire from this gun?

- bmelton 14y agoThat already exists, basically. You could manufacture hard-resin BBs for use in shotgun shells, or even hard-plastic discs for use in something like a Taurus Judge right now. Manufacturing bullet tips wouldn't be any strange feat either, though you'd almost certainly find them less effective than metal bullet tips. The real trick would be in printing gunpowder, which I'm sure is a somewhat tangential field of research.
