In July, I announced the 3D AR Challenge in response to idiots like CA AG Becerra, and CNN’s Avlon, who pretend to believe that people are printing all-plastic, “undetectable” (and probably “fully semi-automatic”) AR-15.
OK; Becerra’s from California; he might really believe that.
The challenge: 3D-print a fully-functional, plastic AR-15, and successfully demonstrate it. The first person to do so will win 10 rounds of equally functional, 100% plastic 3D-printed .223 Remington ammunition.
The deadline was August 31.
I regret to inform you that not a single entry was received. I don’t understand; all the victim-disarming rights violators swore this was a thing.[/sarc]
On the bright side, I’m hoping this meant no easily propagandized idiot tried making one and injured or killed himself.
Or maybe someone did, and that’s why they were unable to contact me to enter. Think of it as evolution in action.*
At any rate, Becerra e al, were and are full of… s something other than facts.

Thank the good L–D. I was truly worried that you would have a horde of people coming in with the plastic guns demonstrating them, and having to put 911 on speed dial.
In the immortal words of that great American, Forrest Gump, “stupid is as stupid does”. Stupid does not usually do much of anything, at least when it comes to much of anything when it comes to trying to prove their points. They would rather subscribe to the Nazi machine of shouting loud and long, until it becomes truth.
You should have made that proposition to the members of Congress.
It was open to anyone. And assorted politicians and other idiots were specifically informed.
