    You currently can not fully 3D print a gun

    Even if you could, distinguishing a gun from everything else is impossible. This is more about people using 3D printing for right to repair

      You don’t know it’s impossible. That’s just insane to think that recognition software can tell that a person’s seatbelt is on if that there is someone at their front door with a package or a bicycle means it’s likely possible.

        It literally is impossible. The only thing going to a 3d printer is a series of commands to the the various stepper motors and heating elements what to do. It would have to be capable of reversing this code to reconstruct the object being printed. A printer is not going to have enough processing power to do this if it’s even possible at all.

              It doesn’t in some niche and limited capabilities. That’s like saying some hot rods don’t have to run gasoline. Sure. There are some with electric motors and they can keep up. But they have drawbacks.
