New York Bill Would Require a Criminal Background Check to Buy a 3D Printer
Supporters of the bill say it's necessary to thwart convicted felons who use 3D printers to develop untraceable "ghost guns."
I understand the intent, but feel that there are so many other loopholes that put much worse weapons on the street than a printer. Besides, my prints can barely sustain normal use, much less a bullet being fired from them. I would think that this is more of a risk to the person holding the gun than who it's pointing at.

You can make a gun with anything
Well, not anything (if you actually think that's possible, then I have a challenge for you: make a functioning gun out of cheese), but an average hardware store should have everything you need to produce something capable of firing a shot.
Usually part of 3D printed guns aren't 3d printed. I'd bet you could make a one-time-use gun out of cheese, but the firing pin and springs would probably have to be made of something else to use a traditional round.
If you go with a gunpowder charge ignited with a flame, it'd be much easier. I'm sure there's even a cheese that could sustain a flame to ignite it with too. You could even make a cheese bullet.
The future of warfare: dairy.

Sounds like something Mythbusters would've taken on back in the day lol
I reckon you could do it with Himalayan Chhurpi (yak) cheese.
Some people find it so hard they literally can't eat it.
Even if you freeze the cheese to make it more solid ?
Fine, hard mode challenge: tissue paper!
Give me water, corn starch and a hydrolic press
