host: what do you need to make a 3-d printed gun? guest: it depends on what you're trying to do. there are different parts you can manufacture with it. you can make a lot of things with a 3-d printer but to make something that can withstand a cartridge going off, you really fairly expensive equipment. several thousand dollars worth of equipment, high-end 3-d printers. not the kind of thing you can buy for $150 online. you really need something substantial. host: how far along as the technology? guest: really, the gun he created, the liberator in 2013, it is a proof of concept, single shot firearm and it does not last long. you can only shoot a few shots through that. i'm not aware of any gun that has come along at that level of three printed material in it. it still has metal but most newer designs include a lot more but it ishe barrels always developing, certainly people around the world and the country are making their own designs as well. it is something that is continuing. host: when you are printing something, what are you printing? how much is printed from the practice -- pl
