I wasn't sure if anyone was aware of this, but recently 3D printers have become really affordable. Although the quality of the cheap ones is not weapons grade in accuracy, let alone strength, people are pursing making completely 3D printable fire arms. They already have had some limited success.

This will be something to keep an eye on in the future months because it puts a whole new spin on regulation. Currently the law is not really written to address it, let alone the reality of trying to enforce it. I own a relatively cheap 3d printer myself, and I have to say there is a real potential for both successful weapon creation as well as major legal/regulation implications.
