NY bill would require a criminal history background check for the purchase of a 3D printer::Requires a criminal history background check for the purchase of a three-dimensional printer capable of creating firearms; prohibits sale to a person who would be disqualified on the basis of criminal history from being granted a license to possess a firearm.
Not that you’re saying otherwise, but it’s not anywhere that simple to make a gun on a 3d printer either. It’s at least not considerably easier than making one clandestinely using any of the myriad options that have existed without 3d printing.
