Man Arrested at Mexican Border, About to Cross with 3D Printed Lower Receiver

Among the weapons was a semi-automatic rifle modified to function as an automatic - notably, the modified rifle had a 3D printed lower receiver. This is the most recent incident in which 3D printed weapons have shown up in the hands of criminals, which, worryingly, is beginning to happen more frequently.

So he was a criminal. Hmm. And NO outrage about the FOUR other weapons that would have been illegal for him to own that are contained in that photograph? So big hoopla over ONE 3D printed reveiver, and NOTHING for the rest of the TRUCK LOAD of weapons and ammo?

Jesus. Hype the crap out of this for the sake web site traffic. A pimp by any other name...still a pimp.
