Cody has accomplished his goal in absolute entirety. I know that he never wanted his efforts yanked like this, but his end goal was to ring this bell, and he did. It is out and it ain't going back in.
No way. There's no way the ITAR law would be crafted with an exemption that would allow United Way to freely distribute nuke secrets to the Russians
This. As an engineer, you learn all sorts of things that can either work to further mankind or for nefarious ends. As far as I know, there are no legal restrictions on obtaining a degree in engineering. To do defense work you'll need a clearance. Which is amusing. We let all kinds of foreigners into our colleges, engineering is particularly affected. They learn the same things those guys with clearances learned.No way. There's no way the ITAR law would be crafted with an exemption that would allow United Way to freely distribute nuke secrets to the Russians
I heard Cody applied (and was denied) for an FFL recently, but now he's trying to be a non-profit? Has he applied (and received) IRS status to that effect? Seems contradictory. I sure hope the Feds don't go after him (I think they'd have a tough sell considering how accommodating he has been with there requests) but I think they may have a point here that he could have violated arms control laws.
The real question is; "is the 150+ year old technology of a squeeze-cocker really a military trade secret that requires Federal oversight?"
Anyone who took Material Science or can read Wikipedia can figure out the numbers to build a low-power plastic pistol--just like Cody (or his engineer friend) has. None of the technologies used to build the thing are secret, nor is the combination of them particularly "novel." It's just that nobody has bothered to do the legwork required to build a working gun through this (for the immediate future) impractical means.

. I'm guessing the US, Switzerland, and Somalia rolleyes had the fewest downloads per capita Sorry to bust your bubble, but there are plenty of weapons one could smuggle aboard planes that are every bit effective as a one shot derringer, and are even more undetectable due the fact that they don't require a metal rod (nail) and metallic cartridge to work.
