Nowadays, 3d Printed Guns Are Quite Reliable

I've fired hundreds of rounds out of my Glock 19 Schnitzel without issue.

And I understand that not everyone can get their hands on a high quality "real" parts kit, but it's not just frames that have come a long way. But even the single shot guns have gone a long way!

I've got a Harlot with a dime breech that I've put dozens of (admittedly .22 short) rounds through. You can build one of those for like $20-$30.

There's plenty of other awesome builds that can withstand hundreds or even thousands of rounds, made out of good ol' PLA+.

Balancing my desire to post cool photos with my OpSec desires. Might set stuff up for it soon.

PLA
wait what, i can print a gun out of pla?
- Yeah, most of it. For the parts that need to be metal, you can order "replacement" parts. Guy in the gun store clued me into this as a money saving trick.
  
  is there a list of replacement parts available so that i can avoid buying them? I'm a law abiding citizen
  
  Well, for a Glock that'd be a Lower Parts Kit, a slide (with barrel), locking block, and rails.
  For some guns, like the HiPoint C9, a kit usually has all the replacement parts you need.
  The specific parts you need can usually be found in the instructions for the 3d print files.
- You can make the part that is legally considered a gun. There is one guy that made a completely PLA gun, but it used special custom ammo.
  There's multiple designs that just need a trip to the hardware store to complete.
  
  dang, a pla lower receiver
  what a time to be alive
