The United States Of America has legalized the 3D-printed weapons. Manufacturing the 3D-printed weapons is quite expensive, and there is needed 3D-printer, what can produce steel parts. That thing is a modified MIG-welding machine, and it's quite expensive. Also, the system needs the CAD-models of every single part of the gun, and then the system must be sharp enough, that the parts would be fitted together. This is why normal people must not be worried about this technology, and that kind of systems are actually so expensive, that lone gunmaker would not have change or willing to pay the prize about that machine.
When we are thinking about the tests, where the guns are made by using 3D-printers, the parts of the weapon have been scanned by using laser scanners for taking precise right form and dimensions of every part of that weapon. So this is the very expensive project, and that's why would be easier to produce illegal weapons by using conventional methods. That's why those weapons, what are made by using 3D-printers are not very common in the hands of hobbyists and other persons.
But those expensive manufacturing tools can be bought by the actors like drug cartels and Mafia, but those organizations have their channels, where they can get weapons. And also some motorcycle clubs may have the interest to buy the 3D-printing system, what can manufacture weapons. As you see, manufacturing the machine parts is not so easy, as people normally believe. The dimensions and form of the part must be made exactly right, or the gun or another machine would not work. Of course is possible that somebody would draw the gun parts by using CAD-programs or scans them to the net by using laser-scanners.
And there is an application for the mobile telephone, what can be used for that thing, but the scanning must happen in the right way, and the telephone should not shake during the process. Of course, there is need the model, what can be used for that action. This is the question of the 3D-printed weapons. If somebody would want this stuff, that person would get it, but that would need highly professionalism to make working weapons or other machines. But there are organizations, what are willing to pay for those skills.
