What are printing? I'd be interested to see what you've come up with.

Why buy metal 3D printing equipment when it is much cheaper to buy metal lathes and milling equipment that makes a better and more reliable part?

I have printed a bunch of firearms, but the .308 specifically is called an Amigo Grande, designed by a guy that goes by NaviBoomhandia/Ivan. It uses the guts from a demilled Spanish CETME battle rifle. You just buy the decommissioned rifle guts and a barrel and print a receiver for it. OT jokes aside, all in for ~$350 on that build.
