This is a great example of what the selective laser sintering 3D printing process is capable of. Not only is it functional, it looks pretty bad ass too. I got $5 that says we see this in an upcoming CoD game.
A circumferentially welded titanium can will stand up to an insane level of stress before it finally bursts or wears out. But with a 3D printed suppressor I have no idea about how short the barrel can be on a rifle or how many rounds it can go before it starts to fail,” explained Leghorn in his review. “If this were to be commercially available, I’d want to see some serious testing before I bought one, and even then I might hold off for a couple years to see how things went.”
