I just bought a 3d printer and was curious if someone here has tried printing a light gun. When looking up thingiverse and equivalents, almost everytime nothing shows up, probably because of the problems with printing weapons on a 3d printer. If someone has a decent model or tried anything like that, let me know! :D |

Andy Sindens proto type light gun was 3D printed. |

Interresting. How was it? sturdy, did it have a good look/feel? It would be interresting, because i might design new cases for my topgun guns, since the topguns are so fragile, that i don`t really want to pull the trigger too hard. Is it (obviously) noticeable in the fit & finish that it was printed? |

But if it was going to be used “properly” I would of made it thicker as it was a bit thin walled in places. |

No reason you can't 3d print a lightgun. I'll be looking at the upcoming Sinden to possibly 3d print a new shell. Most lightgun shells feel terrible to me but I'll have to wait and see on the Sinden. If I do model one I'll share on Thingiverse and link here. |
