[sudo-discuss] First 3d Gun Fired

[Anthony Di Franco]

Not quite as dangerous, since you can make a gun that will fire more than
one bullet before exploding in a machine shop. Or out of parts from a
hardware store; there was a controversial case several years ago where a UK
man made a machine pistol out of hardware store parts and went to prison
for several years because of strict UK laws against this, dying shortly
afterwards. Can't remember the name.
