California state Sen. Leland Yee.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

Guns produced using 3-D printers have found an opponent in state Sen. Leland Yee, who plans to introduce legislation that would ban in California the use of the do-it-yourself technology to create firearms.<\/p>\n

Yee\u2019s proposal comes a few days after University of Texas student Cody Wilson was reported<\/a> to have fired the world\u2019s first fully functional gun made with 3-D printing technology.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe must be proactive in seeking solutions to this new threat rather than wait for the inevitable tragedies this will make possible,\u201d Yee said in a press release.<\/p>\n

San Francisco Examiner:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Senator Chuck Schumer (D-New York) and Congressman Steve Israel (D-New York) are also pushing for legislation in Congress to outlaw guns made with 3-D printers.<\/p>\n

The first 3-D printed gun, known as \u201cthe Liberator\u201d, was recently test-fired and the files to construct it are available for download through a non-profit group, Defense Distributed.<\/p>\n

The gun can be assembled with 15 pieces of ABS plastic printed through 3-D-printing technology. The only non-printed material needed to fire the device is a nail, which serves as a firing pin.<\/p>\n
