A lawsuit that targets companies that distribute computer code that facilitates the illegal manufacture of 3D printed ghost guns was filed by California Attorney General Rob Bonta and San Francisco City Attorney David Chiu.
The lawsuit filed on Friday in San Francisco County Superior Court against Gatalog Foundation Inc. and CTRLPew LLC says the companies unlawfully distribute computer code for 3D printing ghost guns, machine gun conversion devices including “Glock switches,” illegal large-capacity magazines and other firearm-related products and components to people who are not licensed to manufacture firearms in California.
The suit also seeks to hold the defendants held accountable for promoting and facilitating the unlawful manufacture of 3D printed firearms and machine guns.
According to the lawsuits, the defendants make files containing computer code and step-by-step instructions for 3D printing firearms, machine gun conversion devices and other firearm accessories available for download in California. They also provide guides for 3D printing firearms, sell merchandise and solicit donations, and they offer a platform for gun developers to test their 3D printing designs and submit them for approval and distribution, according to the lawsuit.
