In just short of two months 3D printing firm Solid Concepts has introduced, and will now sell a 3D printed metal gun.
 
While the model M1911 semi-automatic pistol is made from stainless steel and Inconel 625 it’s going to cost you a bit more than your standard issue US Army pistol.
 
According to Solid Concepts its 1911DMLS will run you $11,900, a figure that should buy you an entire arsenal not just a single weapon. However, for some firearms enthusiasts the 1911DLMS might be worth the money as Solid Concepts has stated it’s only planning to make 100 of the laser sintered pistols.
