The first complete 3D gun

Forbes: The first gun with almost complete components printed with 3D technology is coming out.

This gun is called the Liberator, a pistol, with the ability to fire a variety of ammunition with varying plastic barrels. Although still a prototype, Defense Distributed, which develops the product, said it will soon be officially launched on its Web site (Defcad.org), so anyone can download it. about. Then, users can use 3D printing technology, a rapidly emerging technology today, to 'print' them into real products anytime, anywhere.

The purpose of Defense Distributed is to help those who want to overcome the control over the possession of weapons of law. The company's desire is to create a gun made of 100% printing from a 3D printer. The Liberator gun is not entirely made of plastic, it's made up of 16 pieces of 3D plastic and two other pieces of metal that can still be found under the metal detector. Meanwhile, a lawmaker in New York has called for a law against 3D printers.

This has created mixed views for those who follow 3D technology when posing problems of management, security ...

Nowadays, 3D printing technology has hundreds of thousands of different applications, ranging from fine prints such as jewelry, model toys to the production of test samples, medical parts such as skeletons. assistants and artificial organs. In the future, 3D printers will become cheaper and more sophisticated, and users will be able to operate a 'mini factory' in their home to create everyday items.
