Maintaining a gun involves knowing how to take the slide off and scrub it with a brush. 3d printing one involves knowing how they work, not to mention having access to a printer, files, then buying a kit because you still need metal internals if you don't want it to explode in your hand. Vice did a video on printed guns.
TL;DW: a reporter got someone experienced in printing guns to help him build and test the gun over weeks and it still malfunctioned on competition day. If you want reliable self defense, buy it. Even a hi point is preferable to a printed gun, and honestly it's probably cheaper too.
I get CC'd on Crown reports on 3D printed guns. But I'm so glad you shared this thing from Vice.
I think our disagreement might be more cultural than technology based, though, since I'm not American and gun laws are much different where I live. And it was... sort of a joke. Obviously, where I live having an unregistered firearm carries a lot of risk that outweighs the benefit.
