Not to say that it's impossible, but not every Joe Schmoe can just get the equipment and voila, here comes a perfectly functional 3d-printed gun for you to go and some shooting with, without you having to do anything to make it operable. It's not like it's Star Trek where they ask the computer to conjure up whatever, and it replicates it for them...

The ability to 3d-print your own parts is interesting...
Would it be so hard with a Youtube video showing you what to do? I can replace any part on my phone, even though I know little about it just by watching videos and doing what they say. Can't be any harder with a gun.
