So I have been lurking on this subreddit for a few months now. Absolutely amazed with some of the prints coming out. I will soon be pulling the trigger on a printer. My question is, how durable is a printed firearm? Like a well done one with an actual metal barrel, is this something that can make it through 5000 rounds or 10,000 rounds? Is it more of an expendable item? Any explanation is appreciated!!
