EDIT: I’ve since been banned from Deterrence Dispensed. This and other issues I’ve realized with the group as I’ve been around the 3D printed firearm scene longer lead me to no longer recommend joining Deterrence Dispensed. I recommend joining AWCY? instead. I won’t go into the details of my ban or those issues publicly so as not to bad mouth their group publicly. Given my ban, I don’t know what they’re working on. Consider this blog post depreciated.
This is just a quick list of the projects that I know are being worked on in Deterrence Dispensed. I’m hoping that by having this list we can foster more collaboration, and create more designs overall. If you’re a member and you’ve got a 3D printed gun part or gun you’re working on, let me know! You can find me on the Deterrence Dispensed Keybase as WindowsTheOS.
Feel free to reach out as well if you think of better ways to organize the list. I’ll be updating it at least once a week if not more frequently.
Sketching/Design
These projects are currently in the sketching/Design phase. This means there’s no printable prototype yet, but work has already begun within a CAD.
- 8 shot .38 Special/.380 ACP Washbear Design – Jstark?
- Mossberg 500 Pistol Grip – me
- Remington Model 11 Stock – me
- 3D printable 12 Gauge Detachable Magazines – Multiple Designers
Prototyping
These projects are in the prototyping stage, they’ve been printed at least once, but have seen limited or no testing and likely need more edits before they fit and function properly.
- The “BW Loader” Ejection port loader – boostwillis (soon to be beta)
- Plastikov (AK 7.62×39) – IvanTheTroll
- Mossberg 500 safety that extends down the frame for pistol grip use – me
- Remington 870 followers – me
- Star +5 or 6 – 5starownage
Beta Testing
These projects have already seen testing by their designers and perhaps others. In this stage, the files are given by request to test for reliability purposes as they’ve already been confirmed for fit and function.
- AR-15 Glock magwell adapter – 458socom
- Remington Model 11 Forend – me
- Remington Model 11 follower – me
- Mac Daddy (Mac 11/9) – FreeMenDontAsk
- PolyPlinker (AR15-22) – point9cmbenis
- Abominable Skorpion – imostlylurk
- Tokarev +3 extension – imostlylurk
Ready for Release
These projects have been tested and found reliable. They are only awaiting things such as a release video, read me, or other supplementary material.
- FGC-9 (Mostly 3D printed 9mm Carbine) – Ivan + Jstark
- 9MM suppressor baffles for NAPA fuel filters – Jstark?
Abandoned/Paused Projects
These are projects who’s designer hasn’t posted an update in a while or have been put on pause by an otherwise active designer.
- I’m not aware of anything here.
I would like to do some possible testing on the 458 adapter and the macdaddy lower if i could please get these files. Also have you tried using any of the PLA+ ? Much appreciated enjoyed watching your channel . Looking forward to seeing more of the sten mag version
I’m banned from DD so I actually don’t know the status of those projects. I need to update this post to reflect that. I use Atomic Filament exclusively right now.
I can offer up testing for Mac daddy if files can be sent. Testing adhesions and print layouts to increase rigidity with pretty good success
I have a modified AR lower file that id like to get out to the public on one of these sites that I’ve personally tested but no idea on how or who to contact while also wanting to try out the mac-daddy lower if not possibly capable of modifying the source file to be as 3D printer friendly as possible and be reinforced in brittle areas. Either way I’d love to help out either with design or sending what I’ve already made
