I was talking about the baffles. The link was to show the body which was made by a manufacturer. I was just showing that with some parts and an assist from a 3D printer you could make a suppressor. You could probably make a better suppressor out of an old Maglite. Do you remember Mitch Werbell and his company SIONICS?

This guy has the left spinning in circles. They have no idea how to label him. Drives them bananas when they cannot apply a label to someone and equate every action with those ideals.
One one hand, he gallantly slayed the evil head of an evil empire bent on nothing but the death of every American. A handsome, probably gay, wealthy genius, he tossed aside all that to follow the noble path of exacting retribution for the millions slaughtered at the hands of evil health insurance corporations.
His grandfather was an evil capitalist, engaged in the most evil capitalism possible, real estate development. Gramps also owned a radio station that transmitted right wing hate on a daily basis. His parents own long term care facilities, filthy internment compounds that are acting in concert with the evil insurance companies.
On the other hand, he was rich and went to private school graduating with honors. He attended an Ivy League college got a degree in computer science. He went to work for a tech company in California. His reading list included Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson. He used a 3D printed ghost gun with a silencer. Obviously a right wing MAGA fascist.
The right's reaction is much simpler and honest.
He shot another man in the back. Fuck him. Lock him up and throw away the key.
I thought it was a Glock or a clone. I figured that was the most common firearm. I'm sure now that camera surveillance will only increase monumentally. The shooter had wealth and privilege and threw it all away. He will spend the rest of his life in Sing Sing. He could have contributed greatly to reducing suffering.

That article was "HORRIBLE" they reference Kits 90% of the article and completely avoided except for one sentence that it was 3D printed which is a whole different thing in how to obtain and make. I guess what you expect from NBC news.
"They are testing the gun, to determine if 3D Printed.............." What by it finally exploding?

"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles. --Jeff Cooper"

Interesting potential motive background...

Mid-20's with a fucked-up back so bad he supposedly couldn't participate in horizontal exercises.

The vagrants of Boulder welcome you...
There's a lotta things about this case that don't add up.
Wealthy genius, apparently a Centrist politically, whose family gained their wealth from health care, goes through a convoluted process of acquiring a ghost Glock with suppressor, fairly good quality counterfeit ID, faraday bag, burner phone... travels via bus from out of state, stays at a hostel for several days, blasts the guy with said gun, takes an ebike back to the bus station, and leaves the state. Very smart, likely to get away with it too.
But he had a laptop with him that accessed the internet via wifi... and all that traffic is monitored and apparently they were able to track it from the hostel to that McDonalds (they claim a McDonalds employee called police who responded immediately, which I'm skeptical of).
When he was caught, they claim he still had the suppressed pistol with him, as well as the tainted NJ ID, a 3 page manifesto, thousands of dollars in cash and foreign currency (which he claimed was planted). They also claim his backpack was recovered from Central Park stuffed with Monopoly money, which is kinda weird.
A smart person, which he was, would've ditched the gun and ID long before getting on a bus. TSA VIPER teams randomly search bus passengers at terminals. And why carry an incriminating manifesto on your way home? Those things are usually left at the scene or mailed to the media.
He went from doing everything right to doing everything wrong. Maybe he recently became schizophrenic, his age is about when acute symptoms tend to manifest.
