British police have seized a 3D printer and components "suspected to be a 3D plastic magazine and trigger." Police made what they're calling a "milestone" discovery when executing a number of warrants in the Manchester suburb of Baguley late last night. The Greater Manchester Police says it's the first seizure of this kind in the UK, where personal firearms are illegal. The parts have been sent for forensic analysis to establish if they could be used to construct a genuine firearm, and a man has been arrested "on suspicion of making gunpowder."
