From Colorado to New York, new laws target digital blueprints and even 3D printers themselves, sparking a heated debate between public safety, Second Amendment rights, and free speech. With nearly 93,000 untraceable guns recovered since 2017 and tech advancing fast, researchers are exploring material signatures to help identify these weapons — turning a high-stakes legal and technological showdown into a defining issue for the future of gun control.
