The DefenseDistributed guys with the 3d printed AR lower just made some good progress...their latest prototype did 600+ rounds with no failure with one extruded type, and a failure with a second one using a second different printing method..

They used a different ABS blend for the material and have added extra beef in areas where Ver. 1, 2 failed.
