3D Printed Guns in Australia - Senate Debates

A report from a minority committee in the Australian Senate suggests that “uniform legislation regulating the manufacture of 3D printed firearms and firearm parts be introduced in all jurisdictions,” while a majority report from the Senate says that while monitoring the situation makes sense, there's no current need to create additional laws which deal specifically with the production of firearms made with 3D printing technology. "The committee ... does not accept that banning the individual use of 3D printers or introducing a character test for ownership is either necessary or practical," says the majority report on the matter. The majority group say they're concerned that such laws might lead to unnecessary regulation of 3D printing overall.
