Because I'd rather homeless folks NOT get shipped to death camps,and parts kits are not something the homeless can access or afford.I was homeless myself in 2018, and I remember how vulnerable I felt.So while arming the proletariat is good praxis, it's also a grudge.
I'm redesigning every single PM422 part, to print with no supports.The transparent red plane, is showing where I'm going to slice the frame.Each section will print face down, 90 degrees counter-clockwise from pictured.Threaded front, bolts to rear, with common #8-32 x 2" stainless bolts (6qty @ $3).Hardware cost will be about $5 USD each, 3/4" steel pipe barrel not included.
Picture shows consideration of hammer-embedded pennies, as rear blade sights. Meh?Also might make the handle/grip a separate, removable part, for a smaller profile.Any other ideas? I want to hear anything that prevents explosive deconstruction.I'm aware legality depends on barrel length and ammunition, or tax stamps.
Getting my feet wet with single-shot "DirtyBird" here, before I dive into my triple barreled "Triumph" pipe shotgun project, concept previously posted here: https://www.reddit.com/r/fosscad/comments/1kyjl1u/concept_design_three_barrel_shell_ejecting_and/
