This is a list of notable 3D printed weapons and parts. The table below lists noteworthy 3D printed weapons and parts of weapons as well as items with a defense-related background. It includes 3D printed weapons and parts created using plastic producing printers as well as metal producing printers.

The Liberator .380 was the first 3D printed plastic gun. It was a single shot pistol made using a Stratasys Dimension SST 3-D printer.[1][2]

The Solid Concepts replica of Browning 1911 was the first 3D printed metal gun[3][4] created using more than 38 printed parts;[5] it successfully fired more than 600 bullets without damaging the gun.[4] The metal printer used to create the weapon cost between US$500,000 to $1 million at the time the gun was created (November 2013).[4]

Production grips are injection moulded in a glass-filled polymer.
  • The Raptor Grip M500 allows an individual to start with a pistol-grip-only (PGO) 12- or 20-gauge Mossberg 500 or Maverick 88 firearm and legally install a 14-inch barrel, without prior ATF approval or any additional tax paid, as an OAL of 26.5" is maintained.[13]
  • The 3D-printed Raptor Grip M500 prototype survived 400 rounds of #8 birdshot, 220 rounds of 00 buckshot, and 40 slug rounds. It never failed. It still exists to this day in perfect condition in the Shockwave Technologies Museum in Salt Lake City, Utah.
