The FGC-9 is about to get a whole lot easier to build

The ‘Nutty 9’ is an ingenious new and improved bolt design for the FGC-9 which consists of nothing more than four nuts and two bolts screwed into a printed connector piece. The only thing left for you to do is simply drill a hole for the firing pin, which could even be done with an old egg-beater drill. A handy printable jig is even included to stick your drill through so there is no measuring or anything else involved. Any kid in the world can now make an effective 9mm carbine, currently being used in war zones, quietly from the comfort of their bedroom.

3D Printed Suppressed .22lr Semi-automatic Pistol

Yep fully printed. Only metal is barrel springs and screws. Just calling it Just-in-Case. I over halled the el ratto. Made it reliable and serviceable. Files are done working on guide.”

It’s an open bolt tubing SMG but appears to make use of a heavily modified and hand fitted 3D printed AR9 lower and furniture. It is chambered for .380 ACP. Perhaps someone out there recognizes the exact files thrown together in this example.

3D Printed Gun Workshop Raided in Belgium

“The searches were carried out last Monday, simultaneously in France and Belgium. In our country these took place in Heverlee and Oud-Heverlee, where two people were arrested. The suspects, an 18-year-old woman from Leuven and a 26-year-old man from France, were arrested by the investigating judge.

In the house where the couple was staying, investigators found an illegal weapons workshop. During the raid, the 3D printer was actively printing penguns (firearms in the shape of a ballpoint pen). Dozens of metal and plastic weapon parts, as well as ready-to-use 3D firearms, were seized.”

The pistols seized appear to be variations of the Y22 Hammer which was designed to be made in bedrooms in Europe.
