Which makes me wonder what happened with the whole 3D printing guns story...at one point few years back it was front page news for a while. Weird how no one talks about it anymore...

Perhaps it's just so easy to buy guns on the black market that there's no point going through the effort of 3D printing one? I'm just speculating, I have no idea.
It think it’s more relevant that 3D printed guns mostly don’t work well and fall apart after a most a couple of shots. By the time you build something that works well you may as well get proper machining tools and make it out of metal.
