President Donald Trump says he is studying whether guns made by a three-dimensional printer should be sold in the United States. Trump wrote on Twitter the idea “doesn’t seem to make much sense!” He added that he spoke to the National Rifle Association about the issue. The NRA is the largest American organization representing the interests of gun owners. Trump’s comments come as eight states and the District of Columbia are taking legal action against his administration for permitting the release of the gun-printing plans. They say anyone following those step-by-step directions could use 3-D printer technology to create a gun out of plastic. State attorneys general are the state officials who can bring cases against the federal government. Washington State Attorney General Bob Ferguson is leading the case against the Trump administration. He said the gun-printing plans are a danger to the public.
