In this spooky Halloween episode of TFBTV, James Reeves interviews Cody Wilson of Defense Distributed about the Ghost Gunner 3S. A more advanced version of the Ghost Gunner 3, this at-home milling machine allows shooters to perform DIY RMR cuts on their Glock slides (or, really, any pistol) as well as slide serrations, stippling, and even build AR lowers from ZERO PERCENT receivers – i.e., plain blocks of metal. The Ghost Gunner 3S is a hardware and software upgrade, but Cody goes into more detail about the differences between the GG3 and GG3S and the endless possibilities for at-home mods and builds.

80% lowers need not apply: In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves speaks with Cody Wilson about the NEW upgrade to the Ghost Gunner 3 that allows GG3 owners to turn “0% receivers” – regular blocks of aluminum – into AR-15 receivers, and possibly pistol frames and other components. Yes: this means that if you own a Ghost Gunner 3, a software update and a new set of fixtures will allow you to start making your own lowers at home. Cody gives you the details personally on today’s TFBTV ep.

For those of you who have been not paying attention for the past few years, Cody Wilson of DEFCAD and Ghost Gunner has been providing lawful gun owners the files and means to manufacture their own firearms. Specifically, 3D printed guns. Technology has advanced that it is easier to manufacture a working firearm at home and it is cost-effective. Recently DEFCAD wins in the Ninth Circuit Court.

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves interviews Cody Wilson about the Ghost Gunner 3 and about Defense Distributed’s future in 2021.

Following the debate and legal actions surrounding 3D Firearms printing this summer a new bill has been introduced to Congress attempting to ban the sale, purchase and distribution of 3D printed firearms parts and to require homemade firearms to have serial numbers.

The ban on the publication of 3D printed firearms blueprints has been extended in a ruling by a federal judge in Seattle. Cody Wilson’s Defense Distributed won the right to publish the plans and files to print weapons back in July, when a federal judge and a number of states moved to block the publication. On Monday 27th August the Court placed a Preliminary Injunction on publication of the files essentially extending the ban on publication as the case against Wilson progresses.

In 2015 we reported that Defense Distributed had teamed up with the Second Amendment Foundation to sue the Department of State over the “Censorship of 3-D Printing Information”. Three years later it has emerged that Defense Distributed and the Second Amendment Foundation have been successful, winning their case and achieving a settlement with the government.

Cody Wilson is not one to shy away from a fight, much less choose enemies his own size. In a David vs. Goliath match-up, Defense Distributed has teamed up with the Second Amendment Foundation to sue the Department of State over “Censorship of 3-D Printing Information.”

Defense Distributed’s project to produce and sell machines that can create firearms receivers for individual hobbyists is now being realized. “Ghost Gunner” miniature CNC machines are, after several delays, finally shipping. From WeaponsMan:
