I thought it would be cool to try 3D printing a stock for a Scorpion Evo. Anyone tried doing that? Following all lawful pre-work, of course. I was exposed to an industrial 3D printer and got the pie in the sky wheels turning...

I suspect that for most people (and considering the size of most 'hobby' 3D printers) that the cost/benefit ratio of printing something that easy to purchase don't make sense.
In your case, if you have access to an industrial 3D printer and a desire for something a bit harder to obtain, the cost/benefit ratio may work in your favor. Do you have an accurate measurement of the stock/receiver interface?

(eta) someone on another forum obtained an airsoft Evo stock that they say is just as strong and well made as the OEM offering.

I would think a scanner could get the dimensions. I was just thinking that it would be fun to be able to do a full custom for an SBR. Or, even make attachments for a pre-existing stock.
