A friend of mine confirms that this is not Sci-Fi but a reality...he has a 3D printer. It is a Riprap printer and sell from $350 to $500 and of course supplies and graphic program (free from Linux) are extra. http://www.indiegogo.com/SeeMeCNC-H-1 It does require a specific type of plastic very resilient to pressure and heat and even then the gun can only be fired a limited number of times. It is amazing that you could build a gun factory in your living room starting at $350...producing guns that could not be detected in a metal scanner.

Got A 3D Printer? Custom Print Your Own Removable Shell There was an episode of CSI on recently in which a guy used a 3D printer to print a pistol. Figures!
