Now, the company has released plans to manufacture and sell 100 limited edition 1911 3D Printed metal guns.
Solid Concepts, one of the world leaders in 3D Printing services, has manufactured the world’s first 3D Printed Metal Gun using a laser sintering process and powdered metals.
     

These limited run 1911 3D Printed metal guns will be built and serialized with the option of unique customization using Solid Concepts Additive Metal Manufacturing technology. Each 3D Printed gun will be manufactured using Inconel 625 and Stainless Steel components. Post machining and hand polishing will complete the manufacturing process and each assembled pistol will undergo 100 rounds of test firing.


Solid Concepts is offering buyers the chance to tour their Texas facility to see their gun being printed, and to join their lead additive manufacturing engineers on the range for the first test firing of their limited 1911 gun. "This is a chance to own a piece of history," says Vice President of Marketing Scott McGowan.

The serialized 1911 3D Printed metal guns will be priced at $11,900 while supplies last. The gun will arrive in a wooden showcase box with a 3D Printed metal plaque describing the unique qualities of the pistol and a certificate of authenticity.
