i was asked about the feasibility and legality of manufacturing a hangun in one's own garage for personal use and i came up short in the knowledge department on this one.
lets assume for the sake of this discussion that the garage is equipped with some nifty CAD sofware linked to a nifty CNC machine and a lathe. now i know its very feasible to make a gun. they are after all, very simple machines. a single shot pistol could be made fairly easily by someone with even medicore skills.
my question is more as to the legality of doing so. is there a license that would allow one to do this? does a person even need a license to tinker in their own garage?
i seem to remember discussion of a man who manufactured a maching gun and it went to court and he "won" so to speak. can anyone point me to that case?
as usual, thanks for the help all.
