Gun Rights Activists Defy Court Ruling, Post 3D-Printed Gun Blueprints Online


According to Yahoo News (August 1, 2018) Gun rights activist groups found a way around the temporary order issued by a Federal judge in Seattle, halting the publishing of 3D-printed gun blueprints. They simply published another set of blueprints on a new website, - http://codeisfreespeech.com/ - which they say is activity protected under the First Amendment, and not  covered by the judge's order.

The site features downloadable blueprints for a variety of firearms, including the AR-15 semiautomatic rifle, the AR-10 battle rifle as well as the Liberator, a single-shot handgun.

It went live the same day that U.S. District Judge Robert Lasnik blocked a settlement that President Donald Trump’s administration had reached with digital firearms nonprofit Defense Distributed, which had been granted permission to re-launch its website on Wednesday with blueprints.

These plans have been on-line for the past couple of years anyway. Posting the plans to http://codeisfreespeech.com/ is more of a political statement, standing up against abuse of our 1st Amendment and 2nd Amendment rights, than it is a way to get previously unavailable material published.  Still if you did not have these plans before, you can get them now.
