If they're buying 3D printed guns, then they're just incentivizing people to print guns for cash. I wonder how many of those are nothing but 3D printed toys that cost the owners a couple of dollars to make.

I was thinking very similar.

  1. Print a replica ghost gun for $n.
  2. Add some ballast to get correct weight.
  3. Sell to SJPD for $100
  4. Profit
  5. Repeat for more profit.
