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.
Im making a charcoal foundry. You gonna card me for briquettes bitchboy?
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.
Oh boy can’t wait for them to ban two pipes that fit inside each other and a nail.
Lol, I built a 3d printer with a 3d printer.
You wouldn’t download a 3D Printer!
Printcrime was not an instruction manual.
Politicians are such profoundly unserious people.
Luigi had no background to check.
This is pure flail.
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.

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
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.
This is braindead, are they gonna require background checks for the hardware store next?
You literally need ID to purchase silverware in the UK. Yes, they will absolutely do this.
Or worse, buying guns everywhere?
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.
new york will do anything but fix actual problems lmao
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We’ll see if that sticks, or if annoying rich car people get the reforms repealed.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.
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.
Ah yes, but then they’ll just make it illegal to buy and own 2nd hand stuff.
Very easy to hit your police quotas in a city where everyone is constantly committing crimes through basic commerce.

“Printed guns” by " tipsy duck"
Someone go ahead and trademark the term “ghost printer.”
I built my own, so I guess stepper motors and heating elements should also be under the law.
