Wiki Weapon's plan to build printable 3D gun backfires
company Stratasys 3D printer brings his defense team distributed after stating that the project violates the laws of firearms
A groupcurrently designing the first plastic gun was fully printable plans fail after 3D printer has been taken by the manufacturer.
A week after the Guardian published details Arma Wiki Project, the team behind the distributed defense was informed by the company violated the printer firearms federal government.
Stratasys, the company that makes the 3D printer uPrint SE, said he had decided on the basis of the distributed defense objectives and the absence of a licensed manufacturer firearms.
"Stratasys policy is not to allow printers to be used for illegal purposes," wrote lawyers for the company in a letter to the group's spokesman, Cody Wilson.
Distributedif the defense would violate any law written Wiki test prototype weapon remains uncertain. The stated objective of the project is to create an open source system that anyone can download. Wilson also stressed that the weapon would be free and the protection Wiki Distributed had no intention of becoming a business.
"Our intentions are not going to violate the law," said Wilson. "This is America, I do not need to save anything."
Under federal law, creating fans pistols, revolvers, rifles and some did not save their creations with the Bureau of Alcohol, Snuff, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), to provided they do not sell, share or sell your weapons. That said, the ATF level requires "any other weapon" to be revised before ATF happens.
- Since 3D printing technology is so new, even the ATF has no answer to what is a Wiki weapon would. Wilson said he asked himself the office and the only answer was a shrug.
Despite this setback, Distributed Defense plans to go ahead with the project, but by a different route. To protect themselves against lawsuits Wilson decided to have a manufacturer's license and incorporate a Distributed Defense.
Documents may take a couple of months and cost a few thousand dollars, but Wilson, a law student of second year at the University of Texas, said he would rather than risk go to jail.
said he originally intended the group as a "distributed network of people" working towards a common goal. This no longer seems feasible avenue, but the group remains committed to its goal of producing a source of firearm open.
"This is the legal system that exists," said Wilson. "That's what this old world of the legal hierarchy requires. Context I have to go to a fair trial to try something. "
