Learn More 3D printed gun files have been all over the news with lawmakers like Steve Israel, Ed Markey, Richard Blumenthal, Chuck Schumer, and others making largely inaccurate claims about how easy it is to print a gun. Further claims by lawmakers that the printed guns will be wielded by terrorists and criminals have fueled a rather heated debate.Back in 2013 Defense Distributed was told by the US State Department that they wouldn't be able to share the 3D firearm files on the internet due to an interpretation of ITAR. Why? Because the files and plans were being treated in the same manner as firearms being exported. In 2015, Defense Distributed filed a lawsuit against the State Department for violating their First Amendment rights.Defense Distributed filed a lawsuit and solicited donations on their website to fight the State Department's decision. On July 10, 2018, a settlement was reached that allowed Defense Distributed to put the files back online. Days later a federal judge granted a temporary restraining order that blocked Defense Distributed from releasing the files on defcad.com.Firearm Policy Coalition has set up the website codeisfreespeech.com so that potential 3D printers have an easy-to-reference source for the files. The website was taken down by Amazon initially but FPC has found a suitable host for the file-sharing site. THE ONE BIG FILEThe must-see source is by far 3D Gun Builder. For guides, builds, file sharing, and a whole lot more — 3D Gun Builder has it all.Also, check out GetHub user maduce's FOSSCAD Library or go straight to the FOSSCAD website and download the FOSSCAD Megapack.Some of the more notable files are as follows:Flying Swallow Revolver Glock .22LR Revolver Unit (Attaches to accessory rail) Partisan Revolver Super Liberator Liberator Marvel Revolver Supreme Revolver Zig Zag Smart Phone Gun Zig Zag Revolver FOSCAD Bump Stock Ruger 10/22 Receiver AR15 LowerAlso in the giant zip file are plans for a drop in auto sear, suppressors, grenades and more. Keep in mind that 3D printing a gun isn't an easy task and many of the files mentioned will likely not result in a working firearm.PRINTABLE GUNSKF5 printable MP5 clone: https://3dgunbuilder.com/rifles/kf5-3d-printed-mp5/Liberator Pistol – https://archive.org/details/Liberator10/22 Receiver – https://github.com/maduce/fosscad-repo/tree/master/Rifles/10_22_Receiver-UnnamedShutty Pistol – https://github.com/maduce/fosscad-repo/tree/master/Pistols/9mm_Shuty_AR-15_Pistol_v4.0_MP-1-unnamedPM522 Washbear – https://github.com/maduce/fosscad-repo/tree/master/Firearms/PM522_Washbear_Revolver_v2.0-JamesRPatrickFlying Swallow Revolver – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2630109Grizzly Handgun – https://github.com/maduce/fosscad-repo/tree/master/Firearms/Grizzly_Handgun-CanadiangunnutSacramento Pistol – https://github.com/maduce/fosscad-repo/tree/master/Firearms/Sacramento_Pistol-CaboosePRINTABLE SUPPRESSORSWe also found several plans for 3D printed suppressors while compiling this list.5mm Supressor – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2828534Monocore 5.56/.223 Suppressor – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2599322Gryphon .22 Suppressor – https://github.com/maduce/fosscad-repo/tree/master/Muzzle_Devices/22_Suppressor_Baffle_Gryphon-Remove_KebabMystique Suppressor – https://github.com/maduce/fosscad-repo/tree/master/Muzzle_Devices/FOSSCAD_Mystique_Suppressor-unnamedPRINTABLE GUN PARTS & TOOLSHow about a bunch of useful 3d printed gun parts and tools?UpLULA M&P Shield Spacer – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2734617Reinforced Liberator Pistol Trigger – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1615992P320 Magazine Limiting Blocks – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2979623Adjustable Blade Arm Brace for AR Pistol – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2934481Colt 1911 Grips – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2852983Glock 43 Grip Plug – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2849561Sig P210 Grips – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2822530AR15 Grip – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:28060095.56/.223 Chamber Flag – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1609864Vortex Strike Eagle Throw Lever – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1724289XDs .45 Rear Slide Plate – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2802422California Compliant AK Grip – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2690189Smith & Wesson 586 & 686 Barrel Vice Pads – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2087868Sig Sauer P938 Grips – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:23231011911 Barrel Bushing Wrench – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5649Glock 19 Gen4 Grip Plug – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1036926PRINTABLE AMMO BOXES, MAGAZINES & EXTENSIONSThere are even 3d printed magazines, magazine extensions, and ammo boxes to print.DPMS AR15 .22LR 10-Round Magazine – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2782642200 Round .22 LR Ammo Box – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:292766210 Round Limiter For Black Dog .22 Magazines – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2266735Speed Loader Model 27A – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2858227Shockwave Blade “Adaptor” – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2551583PRINTABLE GUN STANDS, MOUNTS, HOLSTERS & MAG POUCHESPistol Stand – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2883255Stack-On Security Cabinet Mount – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2859508Walther PPK Magazine Pouch – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:283104912-Gauge Shot Shell Holder – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2770518AR15 Floating Wall Mount – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2757790Walther P22 Under Table Holster – https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2733761Explore RECOILweb:[SHOT Show 2017] KE Arms G34 Slides Now AvailableThe Forgotten P14 Enfield RifleSmith & Wesson Buys GemtechForged in Fire: The Original Bladesmith Competition Returns NEXT STEP: Download Your Free Target Pack from RECOILFor years, RECOIL magazine has treated its readers to a full-size (sometimes full color!) shooting target tucked into each big issue.

Love the mega file, but unfortunately they don't come with instructions for gunsmithing newbies like me. Is there a similarly convenient way to get them for each gun?
