3D printed guns are AWESOME. I want one. lol

This is pretty dang cool.



Version 2 update to the Maverick - it now functions similar to a single action revolver. Version 1 can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/2M3Bd-Rx9AQ

If you're interested in the white marble PLA, it prints very well and it looks amazing. Paid link: https://amzn.to/2TSbp7D

If you want to get started in 3D Printing and help out the channel in the process, the following Amazon paid link for the Ender 3 is a great entry level printer to start with!

This video is intended for educational and entertainment purposes only, and files are currently not publicly available. The PG22 Maverick is not a replacement for a modern firearm, and lacks many safety features and redundancies. A bad print, or degradation of plastic over time could lead to a failure. I do not recommend you build your own. Building and firing a homemade gun is inherently dangerous.


**FAQ**


Where can I find the files?
I do not wish to attract negative publicity from possible misuse, therefore I do not host or provide plans to the general public. Additionally, the laws regarding online sharing of 3D printed firearms isn't entirely clear, so I prefer not to take that risk. Other enthusiast groups may have copies available, so look around.


Why not 22lr?
Mostly because 22 shorts are subsonic. One of the earlier prototypes did take 22lr, but the frame would develop a split on the muzzle, presumably from the shockwave of expanding gas. I think 22lr is also pushing the limits of a plastic breechblock, as it had the tendency to jam up the action. I added some relief venting and beefed up the frame by a significant margin, but decided on sizing it to take 22 short as a precaution. I'd rather have it overbuilt and underpowered.


Is this legal?

Regarding the Undetectable Firearms act
All guns I build are weighed and tested to have enough metal content permanently affixed to be considered detectable. Additional steel can be permanently epoxied to the frame inside the grips to ensure additional detectable mass, though by nature it already has a lot of metal in it from the barrels, cylinder bolt, screws, and springs.
