President Donald Trump tweeted Tuesday morning that he is "looking into" 3D printed plastic guns.
Last week, the federal government reached an agreement with Defense Distributed founder Cody Wilson, who sued former President Barack Obama’s administration over his plans to distribute blueprints to print a plastic, functioning gun.
Attorneys General from eight states and the District of Columbia have filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration to prevent the company from publishing its plans online.
"These downloadable guns are unregistered and very difficult to detect, even with metal detectors, and will be available to anyone regardless of age, mental health or criminal history. If the Trump Administration won’t keep us safe, we will," said Bob Ferguson, Washington State Attorney General, who is representing the other states in the lawsuit.
