This guy made a semi-auto .22 pistol with mostly 3D printing and some milling (for critical metal parts). It also has a really unique ring-drum magazine feeding device.
I admit I liked the style of the original design full-length lower, Vs the current open-bottom slide, but I thought it was also interesting to hear his reasons for why he made some changes to the design.
Someone hire this kid...

What is the legality of making your own gun- 3d printed or not? Is this what the whole 80% lower issue is about?
If the round part were more rearward in a bulllup and acted like a brace,..
Sweet Jesus, he has a speed loader for that drum..
He has a magnetic disconnector????

The Second Amendment ACKNOWLEDGES our right to own and bear arms that are in common use that can be used for lawful purposes. The arms can be restricted ONLY if subject to historical analogue from the founding era or is dangerous (unsafe) AND unusual.
It's that simple.

That’s really, really cool. The only criticism I could muster was that I wanted him to have a trigger guard on the final build.
He’s bound to figure out how to make a disconnect for the ratcheting mechanism so he doesn’t have to rack the slide to load each round.
I also wonder if you can 3D print over a piece of metal in the to encapsulate it and add strength.

Take a great concept and combine it with engineering skill. Nice work kid!!

Kid was trained as a chemist and then a computer scientist. No ‘engineering’ formal training…

It is possible to pause a print job to install an insert into a cavity. It needs to be designed so the insert doesn't interfere with the subsequent passes of the printer head once installed.Originally Posted by jbjh
