basically what the title says, always print in abs kids, also don’t worry, I’m safe
You test fired a 3D printed gun you had no hand in making… but your friend is the idiot? 🤔
Yeah, using the wrong kind of filament accidentally is understandable and doesn’t say anything about anyone’s intelligence.
Takes a real moron to test fire a brand new experimental gun in their hand, and then cry about it and blame their friend when it inevitably goes sideways
Wrong filament and I bet 30% infill too! ;)
nah, it felt heavy enough to be at least 100% infill, this is the reason there are no plastic fragments in my hand
100% infill leaves no room for overflow/swell. Anything more than that is going to cause issues too.
I think you misrepresent something here, I clearly told my friend which filament to use and trusted them, that’s why it’s mildly infuriating
Using the wrong filament isn’t Darwin Award worthy. Test firing a newly manufactured weapon with your hand is. And that would be true even if this wasn’t an experimental home-made design…
And in your opinion, how could I have better represented someone test firing a gun in their own goddamn hand?
Wait, you’re right. After your reply I think “moron” was way too lenient of me.
Please tell me you weren’t wearing eye or ear protection, that’d make this even better.
ok, I’ll admit I’m kinda at fault here to
His idiot friend test fired a brand new weapon in-hand.
High risk, low rewards
Enjoy your rewards
Can you… uh… explain for someone who has no idea what you’re talking of?
Their friend used the weaker kind of material to make a gun and test fired it by hand. So the gun exploded, hurting them.

I can’t believe this ended badly. Seems like you just can’t catch a break.
I usually see people mount it on a vice and use a string from a distance away, plus behind blast shields.
Guns are dumb
Guns are inanimate.
People who do dumb shit like this are dumb.
It’s common to call products dumb when they have the marketing strategy of tricking gullible people into thinking they need it.
And you’re absolutely sure it had turned out differently with ABS? I’ve tried different filaments and to me it seems they’re all just plastics… I tried some mechanical parts and they all broke soon enough. So I’d say it’s likely an ABS gun will explode, too. Don’t try that with your other hand! This is more Darwin award level, than infuriating.
forgot to mention: it fortunately only was a 40gr .22lr
You stupid dumbass…
Interesting. I don’t 3d print. What happened and why?
