At Wed Feb 20, 2013, 01:29 PM an alert was sent on the following post:

The "Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act of 2005" would stop you. N/T
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=2404320

REASON FOR ALERT:

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate. (See <a href="http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=aboutus#communitystandards" target="_blank">Community Standards</a>.)

ALERTER'S COMMENTS:

NRA troll delighting in Bush-era protectionism for the gun lobby? Singing the praises of tort reform? Hide this GOP bullshitter's latest, please.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Wed Feb 20, 2013, 02:06 PM, and the Jury voted 1-5 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: The post makes a valid point. Leave it!
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT and said: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: I have no doubt that this guy is a GOP bullshitter and an asshole gun nut, but you picked the wrong post to try to nail this guy. The post is not hurtful, disruptive or over the top. It contains one sentence that isn't swearing, rude or personally insulting, and could be refuted easily. It is responding to another post that has been deleted, and I am not a mind reader and I don't patronize this shitty forum, and I have no idea what the deleted post said. I wish Skinner would shut this fucking Gun Sewer down--and I also hope he's taking note of the assholes flying their freak flags here today all over the board, who are here because Free Republic is down and they just can't live without sowing shit and barking like mad dogs. Sorry alerter, I'd shut the gungeon down if it were up to me, but this post does not rise to the HIDE IT level.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Sometimes an opinion is just an opinion. Sometimes it's based on fact. But, I see nothing in the post that could be described as "disruptive, hurtful, etc". If what the poster has to say is false let the one doing the alerting present the truth of the matter rather than attacking the messenger.

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

I recently saw somewhere that they're using 3-D polymer printing to make such magazines. Gorp Feb 2013 #20

Give it time. They'll find materials that are heat resistant and can still be used for 3-D printing Gorp Feb 2013 #27
Can you make a barrel without metal though? I highly doubt that. From what I've read about 3d Erose999 Feb 2013 #23
There's an implied assumption that powder and metal are involved in the bullet. Gorp Feb 2013 #29
Here is an example of what you're describing. Erose999 Feb 2013 #33
LOL! But where are you going to get the poison dart frogs from? Gorp Feb 2013 #35
I am sure someone in FL has released them into the wild and they're probably all over the Everglades Erose999 Feb 2013 #38
I'd guess the pythons ate all the frogs. Gorp Feb 2013 #40
Thats why they were released, as population control for the pythons. Erose999 Feb 2013 #44
I doubt the poison would affect the pythons. Gorp Feb 2013 #49

I get to see and play with some fairly cutting edge stuff,,, SQUEE Feb 2013 #50
Compressed gas doesn't generate heat - only the friction of the pellet in the barrel. Gorp Feb 2013 #52
Bakelite has been around since the 1930's. If a bakelite barrel would have worked it'd have been Erose999 Feb 2013 #54
Paintball is a good analogy. Same basic idea. But 3-D printing was science fiction until recently. Gorp Feb 2013 #56
Compressed gas has been sought for a long time as an alternative. SQUEE Feb 2013 #57
Yeah, but you don't need that much velocity to penetrate flesh. Gorp Feb 2013 #58
