Seller exploits gun-buyback loophole with help of 3D printer

New York's attorney general has changed the rules of a state gun buyback program after a participant exploited the system by using a 3D printer to make firearm parts in bulk that he then turned in for $21,000 in gift cards. The seller, who identified himself by a pseudonym, said he traveled...

The officer: “It’s shameful that this individual exploited a program that has successfully taken thousands of guns off the streets to protect our communities from gun violence,” James’ office said in a statement.


The facts of the situation firmly favors one of those two statements. That officer has provided no evidence that the guns surrendered did absolutely anything to "protect communities from gun violence." The seller pretty handily proved how stupid the people running the event and making gun regulations were.

Hat tip to the guy for the ingenuity. I hope the ATF sees the manufacturing of unregistered sears in a light-hearted manner. https://www.ffl123.com/drop-in-auto-sear-dias/

That is how he will get away with it. Pretty sure he went with the name Captain Underpants!

Amnesty at the state level. Not so sure about the federal level.

The seller, who identified himself by a pseudonym, said he traveled from West Virginia to a gun buyback Aug. 27 in Utica, New York...

Under the federal definition of a firearm, starter pistols are included. You can get one shipped to your house for around 50 bucks. Without any legal issues you could turn it in for the 100 gift card.

@wllm We need a graph on starter pistol trunk space capacity in a Honda Civic at $50 profit each verse cost of a guided Yukon moose hunt. Lol

There have been people who have turned full auto weapons into buy back programs without repercussion. Depends on how "anonymous" he actually is, and what mood the ATF are in. Local agencies would probably he rather not be investigated, it wouldn't be good for future buy back programs if they lost their " no questions asked" policy.
