...music is a tad dramatic: http://defdist.org

First caught it on HuffPo here: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/05/06/3d-printed-gun-fired_n_3222669.html

I must also admit I did not know that there was a Wiki Weapon Project.

May ole HP injet is useless now. I can print a picture of a lot of guns I'd like to have in 3D, but that's about it.

Is the chamber/barrel metal? What part is metal, or at least detectable, as required by law?

No the chamber/barrel is not metal.

It has an added piece of metal to comply with the law. Otherwise the only working part that is metal is a nail used as the firing pin.
