A 35-year-old man from Taylor has been arrested and charged with unauthorised manufacture of a firearm and possession of prohibited weapons following a police search of his home. Authorities found 3D-printed handguns, handgun parts, approximately 30 knuckle dusters emblazoned with 'DEATH' and a skull, 12 tasers, seven pepper spray cans, a stun gun, alleged steroids, and 100 packets of illicit tobacco. The items were discovered packaged in shipping bags, indicating potential for sale or distribution. Police seized the 3D printer and computer for forensic analysis, with further charges expected. Detective Acting Inspector Mark Battye warned that illegal firearms pose significant community risks, especially when trafficked to individuals likely to commit violent crimes. The case highlights the dangers of unregulated 3D-printed weapons and the legal consequences of manufacturing such items without authorisation.
