After a drawn out battle, Defense Distributed was set to release blueprints tomorrow that could used to manufacture 3D Printed Guns. That is until a Federal Judge just issued a restraining order to block the release of the gun blueprints, according to the Associated Press.

SEATTLE — The Latest on President Donald Trump and downloadable blueprints for a 3D-printed gun (all times local):

3:15 p.m.

A federal judge in Seattle has issued a temporary restraining order to stop the release of blueprints to make untraceable and undetectable 3D-printed plastic guns.

Eight Democratic attorneys general filed a lawsuit Monday seeking to block the federal government’s settlement with the company that makes the plans available online. They also sought a restraining order, arguing the 3D guns would be a safety risk.

U.S. District Judge Robert Lasnik issued the order Tuesday afternoon.

The company behind the plans, Austin, Texas-based Defense Distributed, had reached a settlement with the federal government in June that allows it to make the plans for the guns available for download on Wednesday.

The restraining order puts that plan on hold for now.

In the meantime, Congressional Democrats have urged President Trump to reverse the decision to let Defense Distributed publish the plans. Trump said Tuesday that he’s “looking into” the idea, saying making 3D plastic guns available to the public “doesn’t seem to make much sense!

5:30 p.m.

The White House is declining to say whether the president thinks blueprints for printing plastic guns should be available to the public.

Spokesman Hogan Gidley tells reporters aboard Air Force One that President Donald Trump “is committed to the safety and security of all Americans and considers this his highest responsibility.”

Gidley notes that it’s currently illegal to own or make a wholly plastic gun, including any made with a 3D printer, and says the administration supports that law and “will continue to look at all options available to us to do what is necessary to protect Americans while also supporting the First and Second amendments.”
