    I’m not really sure where you’re getting “Most 3D-printed guns”, but here’s one of the top communities of such. You’ll see quite clearly that MSLA is not the preferred method for production, parts or otherwise.

      I wasn’t claiming MSLA was preferred I was commenting in reference to the latter half of the comment. Most 3DP firearms last much more than a single round because they incorporate metal components where important.

      I’m familiar with Defcad, but would recommend The Gatalog over it.

        Oh, hey, thanks! I’m new to the concept and my interest is design adjacent: modded Nerf/airsoft arms, so I’m largely unaware of the intricacies of actual firearms printing — though, I’ll give Gatalog a look, fo sho 🤙🏼

          In that case you might want to check out Booligan Shooting Sports on YouTube (he took a similar trajectory as you), Fuddbusters, and Ivanprintsguns also have some 3D2A content.
