Not everybody is the guy who killed Shinzo Abe.
Don’t you mean Tetsuya Yamagami?
The first of his name,the leading seaman, the destroyer of moonies, Saint Blunderbuss I. Long may his name reign. Long may he live.
But the point is that literally anyone could be.
A simple gun is just a tube with one end closed off. You can make a blackpowder musket for about 30 bucks at a hardware store. They even sell the lighters to set off the charge.
3d printers also make shitty guns, for the most part. Unless you’re paying hundreds of dollars for the rest of the firearm, all your making is the part that holds everything together. If you’re not using real firearm parts, a solid plastic gun is largely useless.
Are they going to require background checks to operate a CNC machine too? Cause that’s probably gonna cripple the manufacturing industry.
