This isn't skepticism, this is actual experience machining parts.

At no point have I suggested that CNC machining gun parts is impossible nor that no desktop printers are capable of it.

I have very specifically challenged people who appear to have no experience machining parts but nevertheless insist it's no more difficult than printing your homework.

It's a lie that's used to undermine gun control and you're repeating it verbatim.
