Oh damn that's right. Gun control is gonna be tough. I mean people in Myanmar are fighting the military dictatorship by printing 3D rifles and weapons in the jungles using power generators. How the heck is Canada going to control 3D printed guns? I am surprised this hasn't become a bigger problem here yet.

The same way we control anything. Laws, regulations, investigation, enforcement, and trials.

The vast majority of people are law-abiding, even when they don't quite understand why the law exists.

The people who want an illegal gun have far quicker ways to get one at lower cost and higher reliability. That may not always be true, but it doesn't change the fact that the vast majority of people have no interest in having a gun.
