A Tennessee man demonstrating what kind of damage can be done by the plastic shell, created by 3-D-printing.

 

There is no way to regulate what gets built in a garage. Much less a 3D printer.

 

 

Do you think there should be regulations on what DIY printers should and shouldn't be allowed to create?

So it's basically a sabot that doesn't strip away from the LEAD SHOT creating the actual weight and inertia of the projectile. Also, the shell, powder and primer aren't exactly printable with a home device (as far as I know).

 

I see this more as interesting than frightening.
