A minor correction, 3D printed guns are fairly reliable nowadays when made in a way such that all pressure bearing parts are made with metal/factory made regular parts
I think it was also clarified that the gun was a Glock with 3d printed lower, which is basically a normal Glock with different plastic.
sauce? i'm seeing that he just got a purely-~~ghost~~(edit: homemade) gun
That's what a ghost gun is, the only part of a gun that is tracked is the lower, and often only a fully functional lower.
A ghost gun need not even be 3d printed at all, there was a thriving business for a while in 80-95% lowers that were mostly complete lower kits that just requires some basic machining and assembly, ie. Drill a 1/4" hole here where we marked an x, then put the pieces together.
sorry, i meant purely homemade
I'm not positive but ABC described it as "mostly plastic" as opposed to "entirely plastic"
you do need metal components to build a gun, though these can also be reasonably-easily homemade
