Frequently Asked Questions

What is California's AB 2047 bill?

AB 2047 is a proposed California law that would ban 3D printers unless they are equipped with specific software designed to block the printing of firearm-related files and parts. This aims to prevent the creation of self-made arms.

How does AB 2047 affect 3D printer owners in California?

Under AB 2047, 3D printers would need to be submitted to the DOJ and feature DRM-like antivirus software that scans and blocks gun-related codes and files. This could lead to a limited roster of approved printers and potentially impact non-firearm printing.

What constitutional rights does AB 2047 potentially infringe upon?

Proponents argue that AB 2047 infringes upon the Second Amendment right to bear arms by restricting the means of creation, and the First Amendment right to free speech by attempting to ban the ownership and distribution of certain digital code (STL/CAD files).

What action can be taken against AB 2047?

The video urges viewers to contact their California legislators immediately to express opposition to AB 2047. Prompt action is emphasized as crucial to prevent the bill's passage and protect constitutional rights.
