If I recall, gun control laws in nazi Germany were loosened, but only for nazi party members.
I'm sure they'll craft something that keeps them out of the hands of everyone but the SA and SS.
3D printers hadn't been invented yet.
Yeahhhh but that's like the FP-45 Liberator gun going up against an AK, let alone tanks and drones. Nobody is using plastic guns for a reason, forgetting the fact that the plastics supply could be tamped and they still require machined parts if the new nazi party really wanted to crack down on that. Leaving aside that the printers necessary to do this so it won't blow up in your face are not exactly low-level consumer-grade and easily controlled on the market. At that point we're basically back to pipe guns.
