    People have 3-D printed the lower receiver of an AR-15 as well as magazines (where the ammunition is held) and successfully fired several rounds without the plastic cracking or breaking apart.

    Guns are like the poor, they will always be with you.

    I have seen him literally spend all day trying to convince a poster that black is white.

    The receiver portion of an AK is available on the internet. All you have to do is bend it twice and drill some holes.

    I don't recall exactly. My son's the AK expert. He's made two of them. Eastern European militaries that are upgrading remove the receivers, melt them down, and sell the remainder of the units to wholesalers who then sell them worldwide. Some other company manufacturers a receiver that is incomplete. If you're smart and handy with tools you can make a fully automatic AK-74 for under $400.

    The auto function mechanism is very cool, like a heavy duty clock part. I keep those parts in my safe, at a separate address, so as not to run afoul of that law...

    AR-15 lower receivers for sale on the Internet from 70 dollars to 110 dollars...a bargain.

    Government buybacks don't work. No one is stupid enough to sell back their guns for a fraction of what they paid for them.

    Nothing that the far left loons ever come up with works.

    EVERY liberal proposal involves spending huge amounts of money that they don't have.
