Well, This Could Get Interesting

It seems that 3-D printing has achieved another milestone. Recently, a group of gunsmiths put together a working rifle. No great surprise there. Specifically, they put together an AR-10 – the NATO 7.62mm version of the AR-15. Again, no big surprise there, either. However, precisely how they did it was a bit unusual. It seems […]
