3D printed rifle parts

not this meme again
you can 3d print parts for any weapon
but if you actually want them to be decent and not break you need to spend the money on an expensive printer
a little $200 babys first 3d printer will not work

Yeah but i'd imagine certain parts will shit out after a while simply by virtue of being plastic. Which ones can you replace with 3D printed parts without this being too much of a concern?

>>30781302
The ones people care about 3d printing are generally the ones with serial numbers on them. On the other hand a 3D printed M1A stock might be cool.

>specifically an AKM
The furniture like grip, foregrip, and stock. The trigger group can be replaced although I think it'll last very long with 3d printed parts.

3d printing is pretty shit for actually making anything but prototypes. Pic is a skorp receiver someone made for a parts kits that was for sale at one point. Dunno how it functioned. Sheet steel and forged aluminum parts are entirely different from the abs printed plastics 3d printers use. If you just want to make akm parts you are probably better off with a cheap mig welder, bending break, and an angle grinder. 3d printers are over hyped as fuck

Once the sintered metal printers hit the home/hobbyist market you'll see a difference.

oh also 10/22s have been done

still required fine tuning with a mill though

I dont doubt that for a second, but we have been hearing the "star trek style replicators are just around the corner!" line since at least the early 2000s. The technology WILL advance, but as of yet its not really there.

Nigger do you really have to be told this?

It's been locked up behind patents that are expiring soon.
