Government orders DEFCAD to go dark, remove gun files

If anyone has these files they'd like to forward to me, I'll be happy to distribute them.

Mike, I include the Pirate Bay link in my column.

Perhaps Dot Com has them offshore?

Please do, the site listed in the article to download the information is full of malware.

So much for the 1A....since ITAR apparently now trumps free speech and press if it has anything to do with firearms.

Sweet Jesus....we're on the brink of war.

I have them (except for the "liberator model")Not sure you would want to host them for download, as the whole collection is> 600MB. Could easily use up all your hosting bandwidth in very little time. It is easily available from (non-us) torrent sites, and possibly elsewhere as well.

Was Reading a Russian Site with a Warning of Fuel and Air Mixtures as the New Emergent Threat. Ho Hum, It's Gone from the Web, too.
This Seems to Dovetail nicely with the Situation here in Canada. A Raft of Vague new Rules, and Nobody Knows what they are. Assumeable that things like Compassion and Margins for Error will be Ignored. An Uneasy Calm Exists. Have not been seeing the Usual Mean Spiritedness while Out and About.

So now it's a First Amendment arguement. What say you now you yellow journalists and "only ones"?

A long time ago, some guys got together and built an atomic bomb. Until then, no one really knew whether this would work, so few people wanted to put in the effort. But once it was shown to work, practically everyone else figured out how to do it, too.

The knowledge that it is possible to create a working 3D printed plastic weapon is good enough. I would be highly surprised if this wasn't being replicated, and in better ways, in hundreds of little squirrel holes. And which won't hit the web in such a bold way.

I wouldn't let clampdowns of any kind bother me too much. Science will always be there when you need it. We just don't need it yet.

The problem, as I see it, is always the wetware inside the heads of a bajillion of your fellow man who think that things are just fine as they are. Give the bad guys time, they'll help people understand eventually ...

Here are some torrents for them. The first link leads to a collection of all the files previously on the site. The second link is specifically for the new liberator pistol.

The genie is already out of the bottle. Second amendment, meet first amendment. What can the feds hope to achieve other than receiving a bitch slap from the supreme court?

Steve said...

Send me an e-mail, from the account you want to receive the files at.

I have the LIBERATOR zip, and the Mega-pack.zip

I can be reached at sstaggs AT keepandbeararms DOT com

This is, in the end irrelevant, other than creating more distrust and anger towards the government.

In 25 more years, 3D printers will be widely available and commonplace. Additionally, by that time CAD software available will be more powerful, more accessible, and more intuitive in ease of use, so that anyone even slightly mechanically inclined will be able to design and produce a gun. The software will be able to tell the designer if the design is viable.

The polymers used in these 3D printers will also advance in strength and durability.

Unless the government is intent on banning 3D printers or ammunition, they are simply wasting their own time and our taxpayer money shutting down DEFCAD. The legality of this move is dubious - does this mean that any CNC G-Codes for gun parts are also now defacto "government property"?

Home engineered and manufactured weapon systems are on the horizon folks, and there isn't a damn thing Barry and his Choom Gang can do about it.

How 'bout THEM apples, Mr. Schumer?

Someone already uploaded it to the Pirate Bay. From there, the file has been downloaded onto 100,000 hard drives.

The signal got out--you can't stop the signal...

Write to CD. Make lots and lots of copies. Distribute by hand. Downloading will get you a visit from the Orcs.

Perhaps some enterprising 3D printer enthusiasts out there can contribute some Defdist magazines for the civil disobedience effort?

Neokulak said...

I've sent you a dropbox link to a complete defcad set from February of 2013. It's 164 MB (zipped) so no chance of it going through email.

Cheers.

I just sent a few files your way, Mike. I hope it helps.

Since the Obama govt is using export regs to stop this, what needs to happen is to have these plans and such be put on a foreign server by a foreigner. Once it is exported, as it clearly already has with over 100,000 downloads, its over. Then the only thing the State Dept can do is recommend prosecution but they have a very weak case if you ask me. Mike, don't get involved directly, nothing to be gained by taking this risk. Smart people can get this up on a foreign webserver and then distribute links. That hoses them down good and leaves them with Distributed Defense as the only potential target as they (may) have already broken the export law anyway.

Backwoods Engineer said...

I'll second that. I will post them on my blog as well.

As Mr. Universe in Serenity said, "You can't stop the signal, Mal."

Anonymous said...

Not to worry, Mike. I got them (and everything else they had, and anything else I could find out there on the internet) saved to my local hard drive, a USB drive, an external hard drive, and on three different encrypted folders online.

Backwoods Engineer said...

I have posted the Liberator files at Backwoods Engineer, here:

Mike, you can get the zipfile there. At least until the Feds shut my company's website down.

And yet Obaomao, Holder, et al violated ITAR during F&F. And I haven't seen a one of them do the perp walk yet. Disgusting.

Big time Waco Rules.

Some nasty little obot got his goose stepping orders from on high on this gem of tyranny.

Mt Top Patriot said...

Some act of tyranny no one saw coming is going to change everything.

Collectivists are their own worst enemies in our Republic. Tyranny has never been tried in a Constitutional Republic, while it is safe to contend all variety of intolerable acts and implementation of aspects of the threat and growing probability of imposing tyranny. Along with diktat and decree through social and cultural engineering, grand scale gerrymandering, vote fraud, a lyin' lapdog media, growing police state, and corruption on orders of magnitude have done much damage to swaths of those under Liberty, by no means is this Republic dead.
Anyone who says otherwise is wrong.

My point here is these treasonous meddlers can only fuck with people so long before they make the one mistake that changes everything.

And believe you me, there are a lot, a friggin shitload, of really fed up pissed off people who have had just about enough of you elites bullshit.

It's available on the pirate bay. Feds don't control the pirate bay so it should be there for the foreseeable future. Just in case you might want to get a copy though.

I'm getting some malware reports from Pirate Bay--

I don't know which end the problem is on, but need to bring it to everyone's attention--it prompted me to remove the link from my GRE column.
