      “18 USC 922 G Section O” doesn’t exist. Maybe you meant 18 USC 922 (p), the Undetectable Firearms Act? But it has a serious loophole created by technology like 3D printing. Strange, it’s almost as if the @NRA doesn’t care about the facts…https://twitter.com/NRATV/status/1024455855641485312 …

      People can print guns with easily removable metal parts – so a metal detector won’t detect them. Democrats tried to close this loophole in 2013, but Republicans refused at the behest of the @NRA.

      Yes, it’s true prohibited persons are not allowed to own a gun… but that’s exactly why 3D-printable guns are so dangerous. It’s naïve to expect we can prevent prohibited persons like felons from accessing the internet and printing a firearm without a background check.

      You don’t need a $50,000 3D printer to make a gun. Some cost as little as a few hundred dollars, and the technology is becoming cheaper and better every day.

      Downloadable guns are untraceable and will threaten the safety of law enforcement, who won’t have serial numbers to reference.

      And a terrorist organization could make undetectable, downloadable guns from American blueprints to attack American soldiers overseas. Whose side is the NRA on?

          .@NRATV likes to say “Nothing Triggers Like Truth”. There’s nothing truthful about @DLoesch's accusations or the NRA’s policies. A better slogan is “Nothing Lies Like The NRA”. #StopDownloadableGuns

          You are willfully in denial or innocently ignorant. Laws about untraceable or undetectable guns have been here for decades, and the NRA was actively involved in getting them in place. The NRA is its membership. When you lie about the NRA, you lie about us. @RealJamesWoods

          Wrong. Those guns are only good for a few shots - and only for a .22. Terrorist organizations have much cheaper sources good much more reliable and effective weapons. And since you asked, the @NRA is on MY SIDE - a law abiding citizen, unlike you!

          Are they using plastic undetectable bullets also? As long as there are bullets, there is detection.

          They could also just buy one in the numerous places bad people buy bad stuff for nothing. Im sure in places overseas where terrorists are, one could buy 10 ak47s for the price of a crappy 3d printer.

          The NRA is on the side of the entities that pay it the most money. Nobody in their right mind believes that the NRA is pro-American. The NRA is pro-money. Period.
