I've been wondering about that tech as a way to make custom-fit Magazines for guns that can no longer readily find them (like the 99C)
C2N14... because life is not energetic enough.

That can certainly be done, but in this case I believe that they are downloading the CAD spec to drive a printer that deposits layered polymers rather than ink.

The thing just keeps depositing layers until there is an actual 3-dimensional object.

Read an article not long ago about a guy who 'printed' a car (yes, an entire working automobile), and then actually drove the darn thing.

The age of material replicators has arrived.

Thank you, Gene Roddenbury.

Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.

History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.

If you have access to a 3-D scanner, you can just scan your favorite firearm and then print out a copy. Amazing.
