But a surprising part is, there's only one place that prints them. You'd think with how easy it is, the market would be full of various inventive designs. But I scour high and low, across all sites, and this is the only one.
Many people print containers of various kinds, but all of them must be operated with two hands, or at best are extremely awkward and unreliable when used with one hand.
How comes that in this vast nation only one man has the right idea. It cannot be.
@dsm@f0x@pwm@sysrq@ins0mniak@shibao@WilhelmIII Oh I'm enjoying it quite a bit (although it's a Taurus, not Ruger specifically). In fact, I was not going to buy a clipless revolver anymore. But then I bought a GP100-22, and being a rimfire it loads without clips.
@fribbledom I was wondering just who uses multi-material printers, and to what purpose. I never trusted them enough to incorporate into products. But just off-loading the scaffolding to PLA seems like a capital idea.
@phnt@p@lanodan@hfaust@sim@sun Looks like the old Taurus 85 Hammerless, before the slanted release. Also, left handed and unloaded, quite a combo all around.
@splitshockvirus@benis_redux I'm seeing a business opportunity here. KelTec reps said that unloading is only possibly by cycling through the action, like on Mauser C96. But I may be able to come up with an anti-stripper unloader. Jam it into the ejection port, and all rounds pour out into a sandwich bag.
@sun@Lyx@jeffcliff Keep in mind that resistance of safes is much decreased by battery-powered grinders. It works by melting, therefore no metal can resist it, no matter how hard. The only thing safes can offer anymore is being super thick. But that also makes them so heavy that normal houses cannot support them. It's a vault, not a safe. So I think the most important characteristic of a safe is a fire resistance. None of them offer much of burglar resistance.
@shibao I used to work for Red Hat, and they specifically prohibited employees from carrying. Fortunately, they never had any detectors, at least in the satellite offices.
