United Health Care worker murder

[Skully]

I didn't see anyone on here talking about this. There has been a lot of media debating this, specifically the firearm part of it that was used. As usual the typical Anti groups was calling for the complete ban of Whisper Pickles etc.

The local police guessed what he used (B&T Station 6) but COMPLETELY wrong now that they caught him, I find this interesting.

Weapon recovered on CEO murder suspect appears to be 'ghost' gun made on 3-D printer: police

Officers found a black 3D-printed pistol and a black silencer in Mangione's backpack, court documents say. The pistol had a metal slide and a plastic handle with a metal threaded barrel.
The pistol had one loaded Glock magazine with six nine-millimeter full metal jacket rounds, documents said. Police said the silencer was also 3D printed.

No matter what laws are on the books, Killer nerds will always find a way I guess.................. a 3D printed silencer, Interesting?

All 3D printed. No wonder the gun jammed after every shot.

> 3D printed silencer
They are surprisingly robust, considering the material issues.

> police guessed Station 6
Then they are retarded. It was very clearly not a Welrod style pistol in the unedited videos.
Based on that misinformation only, it’s now safe to assume everything they release on this case is misinformation at best and probably a straight up lie.

And here are all the guesses from people here:

Some people weren't even close...................

I didn't follow this closely.........
Where did the Police, who were actually a part of the investigation, identify the pistol involved?
NOT the various "police experts" or "media sources" who are talking heads on the various tv programs.................the actual police involved?
As in a news briefing where the actual police identify the gun. (Prior of course to his arrest).
Did I miss that?
Maybe I did.

Regardless............ Yes, I'm always suspicious of the media on something like this.
They are determined to be the first in getting the info out and that means it's usually inaccurate...........if you want to call that "misinformation" ...... Sure go ahead.
I call it either incompetence or not caring......... which either way means like most Americans I have VERY little faith in the media.

The bulk of the new commercial silencers are now 3D printed. It let's them do some really cool things with the internal geometries. Probably impossible to clean, but they are going for max quite with low back pressure.

As for printing one at home in plastic, you would probably have a small boom in front of your face, due to the internal pressures.

Yeah the newer DEAD AIR Lazarus and Mojave 9 all 3D printed, but I am assuming the 3D printer + the material DEAD AIR is having them made by is professional grade and designed to do it.

Guess I am not up on the current home 3D printer market, makes me wonder what KINDA of material he used and why it DIDNT blow up in his face on the first shot.

Might be why it jammed.

Some of the carbon reinforced filaments (i.e PETG) may be able to make something that works for a couple of rounds.

Heat would be the worst enemy very quickly.

Funny thing is the guy apparently has no record so he could have just bought a gun.

Right? He appears to be smart but not very streetwise.

Carbon fiber is fairly strong. I guess you can print awesome baffles to fit the load. When your last day of freedom is spent at a McDonalds? The smell of sweat & fries? SARC~
