Today is inauguration day. A sacred day that every American should hold dear. This is a culmination of our democratic process that proves our system of government is the only government where our citizens choose our leaders from the best choices available and in no way could be manipulated by outside forces to sway the outcome in their favor.
There is no room for argument that the two best choices to lead this great nation are
- A lifelong politician who is bought and paid for by China, gets his family lucrative overseas business deals by abusing the powers of his office, who wants our Federal Reserve to prioritize income equality over job creation and curbing inflation, and who will appoint only LGBTQ+ PoC to cabinet positions regardless of qualification.
and
- A wealthy reality TV star who can't keep his mouth shut when he should, claims to be pro-2A but wants to take your guns first and have due process later and also bans mechanisms for shooting guns faster than your finger can pull the trigger even though it's still your finger pulling the trigger, reminds us who is our greatest ally, and played the victim game until the very end.
Surely this is result of a purely democratic selection process and in no way was orchestrated by the rich and powerful as a way to maintain control of the lowly citizens.
carry on friends, ask some gun related questions while I continue to live in willingly ignorant bliss.
What should a new 3D printer owner who wants to print and build his own Glock be aware of? Who are the best vendors for parts that lead to cost savings over purchasing a Glock at retail price?
You are going to have a tough time saving much cost over a retail Glock. It's more a paperwork simplification thing.
Deterrence Dispensed recently got knocked off Keybase. Supposedly they are or will soon be at: chat.deterrencedispensed.com/home
That's your single best source of info for advice on actual printer settings to tweak, filament types and other technical data for optimizing the print itself.
Most of the models require metal rails on the base. These are trivial to fabricate with a mill, possible to fabricate without a mill, and usually available for purchase from someone on dd.
Note that most of the models out there will be for a Gen3 Glock, so that is what you'll likely want.
Agreed, the parts kits are much more expensive than I was expecting. I'm probably going to stick to building stendos and accessories.
