I love an enterprising mind.

Man makes $21,000 selling 3D-printed guns during NY AG gun buyback program

A man traded in 110 3D-printed lower receivers for over $20,000 in gift cards at a New York Attorney General's Office gun buyback program in Utica, New York.

Heartwarming story! The link I read somewhere else had a great picture of the pile of crap he brought them.

So, now he has $21k to spend on a couple nice firearms. Cool…….

I ONLY hope California pays him $42K... so they can brag to NY that they are TWICE as smart.

Well good for him. I usually visit the buy backs to buy guns…

I've read other articles now about buybacks since then that specifically say they don't accept "homemade firearms" to prevent exactly this scenario. So obviously, what they're saying is that so-called "ghost guns" aren't really a meaningful problem since it's not important to get them off the streets now.
