I don't see how a terrorist would do much damage with this. if you can only get 1 shot off before you have to reload. That being said, i'm sure that someone will design a printable gun that can fire multiple rounds eventually. This is just the first version of it.

Really? It only takes one man to pull the trigger and one round to lets say assassinate a world leader. If you cant see how just one round(bullet) can change world history or affect things then you don't know much about history. Who says a terrorist or nutter would not carry more than one? Funny old thing though, sometimes terrorists don't act alone, they act in groups, it .wasn't one man per plane at 9-11! |

especially when you could just buy a pressure cooker. You could probably do more damage with a machete in a large crowd, just slashing away with a sharp machete at people in a crowd than you could with one of these single shot plastic guns. People that want to commit terrorist attacks will always find a way. That doesn't mean we should take away more civil liberties though.

Think about it, eventually one day, some terrorist group or some criminal gang will recruit a boy genius who may develop this sort of thing, but throwing the plans out on the internet for anyone to use is lets say a little irresponsible. |

So what are you advocating? More censorship of the internet?
Maybe we should also censor chemistry books. Evil people will find a way to be evil, censorship is not the answer.

One of the biggest concerns about these, is that they wouldn't show up through airport metal detectors, potentially enabling terrorists to smuggle them on to planes.

I worry that because it's plastic and a funny shape it really does look like a toy gun, so kids would be more likely to play with it. They really should make it look more like a real handgun.
