The SSS (super simple suppressor, 22 cal by Mr snark) is the only suppressor I’ve heard of that was actually tested in resin

Edit: I have no idea what resin but presumably a tough resin

Nice job! Looks like it should work well

Not pa6 but PPA is pretty similar to pps in wear. Both were annealed and printed at 330°c

D cell baffles start to show pretty heavy erosion with pps-cf within 300 or 400 rounds. I just keep rearranging them so the most eroded is at the muzzle end

In fairness I’m not exactly polite to them. 9mm, and I usually dump 6 mags with my sphynx so around 90 rounds in 90 seconds

While I don’t use 300blk settings exactly, I have a well dialed in fiberon pa6cf profile I use, and have used with sunlu

Generally speaking, it prints well, with a bit rougher surface finish than fiberon. On paper it’s not quite as strong

It does seem to arrive a bit wetter than other nylons I’ve used. Dry it properly before starting

Good beta testers are actively involved.

Lots of testers join, download the files and dip

They aren’t invited back to the best betas

Doesn’t mean you have to post daily. But keep up with channel so you don’t make the devs repeat themselves and keep the goals in mind

Just use kinetic sand

Print the weight as a mold and press it into firmly packed sand. Carefully remove the printed mold and pour. I’ve cast about 150 mp22 bolt weights this way and it’s super noob friendly

Black lotus coalition is hosting that beta. You need to find their discord, and join the exam room. Prove your worth as a tester and show you’re willing to follow the rules and they will add you to the beta. The beta is hosted on element, not discord, but discord is easier to get to and they can add you to the element server from there

Check out the builds section on my site www.print-a-22.com

I don’t know of any that are exactly what you’re looking for, but I do know you’ll find something you want to build

You’re likely the first outside the beta to do it with kimber parts. If things aren’t fitting like expected there is a discord help room for it in blc server and miami4quad is active there.

It’s an awesome little build. All 3 of mine were sign parts but each has over 500rds

print settings is the right fix. but a heavier spring can work as a bandaid

Its all about balance though. In testing these printed mags, 4/13 i must have left the spring a coil or two too long, and they would bind the slide up for the first few shots until the mag was about half full. I suspect clipping a coil off those mags springs should fix it right up.

At this point im still experimenting with them.

They are essentially the same. Null is bigger improved nag. Changes from null have been incorporated into nag

Its an incredibly clever design, and when built properly, can be a lot of fun. However there is also a lot that can go wrong, especially if you aren’t an experienced builder, and when it does go wrong, it typically results in a catastrophic failure.

With that said, its not a particularly easy print, and its really for more experienced builders. It requires a lot of fine tuning to get running well, and in general isn’t very beginner friendly.

If you’re looking for a 99% printable pistol that is a bit more beginner friendly, the YH22 or SY22 are great candidates (kits available for both on my site)

Idk about a reference model, but since the HS2000 and the XD are the same gun, the XD files may have what you need. Files include step files for full size and subcompact 9 and 40 cal

Kopsis response is spot on. Handguns are not typically the easy first build you want to start with.

I know its not as exciting as some of the other builds, but please start with some variant of the harlot. To keep it a bit more exciting, download “BLC Presents the Harlets” which is a mega pack containing all their options. The harlot is largely modular, so in many cases you can mix and match parts to build something unique.

The reasons you should start with one of these are: They force you to get familiar with 3d2a concepts like working with barrel liner, and printing parts that move against each other. They force you to calibrate your printer. They also have good documentation that covers troubleshooting of all the common issues. And finally, the stakes are lower, both from a financial standpoint (harlot kits start around $20) and from a health standpoint, that if you blow one up in your hand, its much less likely to hurt you than something larger.

Once you have not just completed building, but testing(Firing!) your harlot, move on to a more complex build. I highly recommend one of Kaewon’s builds (Baby Barrett, M4Gery, Wisp, etc) as they are generally all easy to print, assemble, and get working well, and they all look fantastic

If you’re dead set on building a handgun, the YH22 or SY22 are both good options for fully printed builds. You can think of the SY22 as a deluxe version of the YH22… the SY22 is based on the YH22, but with many enhancements made for an overall fantastic build.

If you haven’t already, check out the builds section of my site. You’ll likely find something you hadn’t seen before that you want to build!

Unsure. I believe the outer shell shape should be authentic to a real one, but outside of the pins that hold it together being the same size, I don’t have any first hand knowledge that any parts will be compatible, interchangeable, or usable from a real one

Out of the box, I don’t think so…but it uses an AR FCG, so likely possible with some extra work

Already available for pre sale, kits will ship when or just before files drop. Link at bottom of op
