3D printer technology and what it represents for home/local manufacture is one of the more interesting technological developments of the next few decades. Not sure that we need worry too much about plastic guns though, for the reasons stated above. Where guns are plentiful, it is probably easier just to go buy a regular gun. Where they are not so easy to get...

It appears that the US State Department have asked Defence Distributed to take down the plans, based upon laws relating to the international trafficking of arms.

Cannot really put the genie back in the bottle though...

Woofgang, if you look back to the first page of the thread, you'll see that Mamyalynne's contribution, timed at 1210, referred to her cringing at the use of the phrase "off of". My later offering was in answer to that.
If anyone wants a more recent illustration of the phrase than those I offered, they need only consider The Rolling Stones' exhortation: "Hey, you, get off of my cloud!"
Nowadays, it is probably more frequently heard as what amounts to a single word "offa" in instructions such as "Get offa that bike!" The 'a' is merely an abbreviation of 'of'.
