New Jersey Democrats move to ban distribution of firearm CAD files for 3D printers, more

N.J. aiming to ban 3D-printable guns, too
State Sens. Joseph Cryan and Nick Scutari, both D-Union, introduced the original bill in April. It would prohibit the purchase and assembly of untraceable firearm components used to make homemade guns without serial numbers.

Now, the legislation (S2465/A3129) would prohibit people from disseminating programming files used by 3D printers to make plastic guns.
Gun-rights advocates say the measure is redundant because it's already against state law to manufacture a firearms without a state manufacturer's license and that people prohibited from buying guns are also barred from assembling guns.
