Defense Distributed

On Monday a federal judge blocked Defense Distributed from publishing 3D-printable files online. Now that company says it will send the plans directly to customers who want them.

The judge said the untraceable weapons could end up in the wrong hands. But it's unclear how effective the order is since some gun plans have already been online for four days.

The lawsuit is seeking a temporary restraining order to bar the government from lifting export control restrictions and stop a company from posting downloadable gun plans online later this week.
