  1. >Annabel Darlow QC had told Sheffield Crown Court that the defendants were members of an “extreme fascist cell during the first four months of 2021.”

    I feel this is a bigger problem than most of us acknowledge. These far right chat rooms and forums aren’t going anywhere

  2. It’s a good job your average neo Nazi is pretty thick really ain’t it.
    If you were so Inclined to commit any act likely to result in the death of anyone why the fuck would you be bragging about it to randoms ? Why would you brag about it at all ?

  3. Idiots, they’re are so many ways they could of got those STL files anonymously. Probably talking about it on a discord channel or daily stormer.

  4. Why do self proclaimed “members of the master race” generally look weak, ugly and ill. Surely someone must realise?

  5. Don’t they know that if you want to build a handgun at home all you need is a mill, a lathe and sheet metal bender.

    (for those who don’t know I am referring to the luty sub machine gun)

  6. > an electric hot plate with black powder residue which had been used to manufacture explosives, but the couple told the court they were making rockets for their children during lockdown.

    Just this sentence tells you so much about how utterly stupid this couple were. How on earth did our education system produce these people?

  7. They’re so proud of their race that they cannot even nurture it’s future i.e their own children

  8. > Hall and Wright were found guilty of manufacturing the handgun and Wright was found guilty of possessing the firearm for terrorism after he boasted about it online to an undercover police officer.

    Ahahahaha

  9. A 3D printed gun would be about as useful as a chocolate teapot, unless you can 3D print the ammunition to fire out of it. This couple probably needs psychiatric care, rather than prison.

  10. This shit scares me – it’s hard enough reading about it happening in America with the Atlantic Ocean between me and the crazy Nazi people with guns. Glad they were caught but there are definitely more out there in this country cooking up insane plans to kill people.

  11. No one in here talking about how they likely just have a plastic filament printer? Where they getting the barrel and mechanism from?

  12. I can absolutely believe them to be neo nazis and think they’re superior based on absolutely nothing they’ve achieved themselves. They look like they’d stop me in town and ask me if I want to buy a bus ticket.

  13. The big problem of printing a plastic gun in the UK is obtaining the bullets. 3D printed guns are made with hard ABS plastic.
    Most entry level cheap printers use PLA which is much weaker. Printed guns also need some metal parts.

    Getting bullets and gun metal parts might be quite easy in the US, but not so in the UK. I think the danger of printed guns in the UK is overstated. If these neo nutters were really committed they would be stealing guns or buying them from criminals. Fortunately they don’t look brave enough to do that.

  14. So they got caught downloading a file and sending it to the 3d printer.

    Probably a function built into the 3d printing software to alert authorities.
