Technically it’s for any printer capable of printing a firearm or the components of a firearm, which is…. every printer. What a bafflingly stupid proposal. If you’re in NY, please call your reps and tell them to oppose this bill.
Surely it would be much easier to require checks to buy ammunition.
As people told me yesterday, apparently my state (California) already does that.
As a 2nd amendment loving American, I cosign your idea. I’m fine with getting a license to purchase more ammo.
However, I’ll make my own before I pay extortion prices.
If you’re european and ask yourself why 3D printed guns are such an issue in the US: It’s not because entire guns are easy to print (or printable at all), It’s because of their idiotic gun laws: in the US, the only controlled part is the receiver or frame, which often enough is made of plastic anyway, while the most important part -the barrel- is freely obtainable.
Germany has a similar law, except that every part of the gun is controlled.
Im making a charcoal foundry. You gonna card me for briquettes bitchboy?
Make a community with a dude that makes potassium and another dude that makes sulfur and then you can really make things go off
Again. This bill was introduced last year, by the same person, and it died at the time because of some grassroots actions. Now, the wording is slightly different (so it can be introduced again as a “different” bill), and it’s being tried again.
Luigi had no background to check.
This is pure flail.
Oh boy can’t wait for them to ban two pipes that fit inside each other and a nail.
What about a bunch of stepper motor and some plastic. Do I need a background check for that?
Well, everyone knows only main boards have a serial number, so you need a permit for that. But the rest is a spare part, you can get it freely.

new york will do anything but fix actual problems lmao
My guy, you got to look at it from the bigger perspective, the whole country will do anything buy fix actual problems
It fixed congestion.
We’ll see if that sticks, or if annoying rich car people get the reforms repealed. Hochul certainly seems pliable.
Rich car people will take it as the cost of doing business and have the roads to themselves like they wanted.
That’s actually ok. As long as it stops congestion and improves safety. That is the whole point.
This is second time they trying to pass this bullshit. 2023 https://www.nysenate.gov/legislation/bills/2023/A8132
Oh don’t worry, there will be a third. And a fourth. And a… Well, more and more until it passes
It only has to pass once
Political hackers.
The people have to be successful every time, but the political hackers have to successful just once.
Politicians are such profoundly unserious people.
This is braindead, are they gonna require background checks for the hardware store next?
Don’t forget sporting goods and kitchen supplies. Heck, you can get a bunch of decent knives in IKEA, better put furniture outlets on a watchlist.
Or worse, buying guns everywhere?
You literally need ID to purchase silverware in the UK. Yes, they will absolutely do this.
Lol, I built a 3d printer with a 3d printer.
You wouldn’t download a 3D Printer!
seriousoly?
The wilson2 with 80/20 aluminum. Not too hard.
Yeah. The Voron printers are a good example
Any engineer worth their salt can do this without a 3d printer. Idiots.
Next up, you’re going to have to register your drill press, lathe, etc.
Luigi would have passed a background check.
And didn’t even use his own printer (according to his confession/manifesto)…
was it even printed in new york? I mean im sure someone would never bring one in from jersey.
Everything is legal in New Jersey.
Why do you print like you’re running out of time?

Are they going to require background checks for purchasing metal working equipment? Or maybe just make it illegal to bring any metal to melting point without a license.
Because you can make guns with metal.
It just buy a gun third party or at a gun show in a state without background check requirements.
This isn’t rocket science.
Background checks are a Federal requirement and any transfer requires it go through an FFL for just that reason There is no Gun Show Loophole
The loophole is largely in the matter of enforcement. It is comically easy to evade these regulation or outright ignore them.
Ah yes, but then they’ll just make it illegal to buy and own 2nd hand stuff.
Book publishers tried that years ago They lost and the First Sale Doctrine was born
Very easy to hit your police quotas in a city where everyone is constantly committing crimes through basic commerce.
