That guy who insisted his 3D printed gun would outlast any store-bought model

Guy on a forum was dead set that PLA plastic could survive 500 rounds of rapid fire. He linked a video of himself firing three shots and a crack appearing. Then he blamed the weather for being too humid. Final straw was him claiming gun manufacturers just don't want you to know the secret. Has anyone else seen those DIY gun files that are basically suicide machines?

Bet @sammartinez hasn't actually tried running that many rounds through one of those things.

Hey those files are only dangerous if you don't know what you're doing.

Oh yeah I just read an article that said those files can actually mess with your system in ways you wouldn't expect even if you know the basics. It's wild how one wrong click can trash everything.
