This video details observations from a 600-round test of two 'Orca' 3D-printed firearms, one in PLA Plus and one in Carbon Fiber Nylon. Key takeaways include the failure susceptibility of polycarbonate clips, the thermal limitations of PLA Plus leading to malfunctions, and interesting insights into brass ejection dynamics.
This video provides an expert-level overview of various 3D printing filaments, focusing on their suitability for functional parts, particularly firearm components like lower receivers. The instructor, with extensive testing experience, details the properties, pros, and cons of PLA Plus, Carbon Fiber Nylon, Glass Fiber Nylon, Polycarbonate blends, and TPU. He emphasizes Push Plastic Carbon Fiber Nylon as a top recommendation for its balance of strength, heat resistance, and printability, while cautioning against certain other materials like PETG due to poor mechanical properties.
