Live on BLC At last! The long awaited launch of the kp9-Bizon magazine conversion is here. I want to extend a personal thanks to uberpoor for his huge help in documentation and development of the Bizon Handgaurd. This is a rather complex model and issues are likely to appear.

Update #2: in case anyone was concerned about it, the business is run at a different location so no inventory or parts were damaged! Also, by the grace of God our dogs were okay, they were in the house when it started but my wife came home just in time to get them out!

My house is on fire, pray for me

When it comes to 3D printing you don't see many shotguns. If you've been following us for a bit you know about the Dirte Dozen. Coming in single shot or double barrel this beautiful break action is an absolute beast. It utilizes a printed body, and all hardware store parts. Everything from the screws, to the diy firing pins, triggers, hammers, plates, etc can be made at home. Want to join the team making this possible? Come and join the Black Lotus Coalition.

There are people who machine foam!

I would not recognize JD Vance if he walked past me I have genuinely just not seen an unedited picture of this man.

Russian soldier who had lost his rifle engages a Ukrainian FPV drone, trying to bring it down with nothing but a brick. Drone warfare leaves no option but to react instantly.

Ukrainian soldier survived despite being hit in the chest by a 30 mm round.

We encourage remixes, but uncredited sales and claims of ownership will be punished with emailed pics of my Frankenstein esque member. Personal army request granted. 🫡

Another Ukrainian FPV fragmentation warhead reflects the absence of armored vehicles in the grey zone. A printed casing holding steel ball striking elements with a C4 explosive core comprise a powerful anti-personnel device.

【イジェフスク製試作自動小銃】 イジェフスクで試作されたということ以外ほぼ情報のない試作銃。5.45×39mm弾をオープンボルトで射撃する。ボルトは非常に独特なギアのような形状をしておりかなり軽量なため低反動で高速射撃が可能だったと思われる。その性質から”Abakan”計画の試作と予想されている。

🇮🇷 Iran is reported to have acquired the AN/AAQ-24 LAIRCM system, which is designed to protect large aircraft such as the C-130 from heat-seeking missiles. The spherical dome seen on aircraft like the MC-130J houses the LAIRCM turret. It detects incoming missiles and uses a laser to disrupt their seeker heads. The system is deployed on platforms including MC-130J, C-130, C-17, and CV-22.

A full MIT course on visual autonomous navigation. If you work on robotics, drones, or self-driving systems, this one is worth bookmarking‼️ MIT’s Visual Navigation for Autonomous Vehicles course covers the full perception-to-control stack, not just isolated algorithms. What it focuses on: • 2D and 3D vision for navigation • Visual and visual-inertial odometry for state estimation • Place recognition and SLAM for localization and mapping • Trajectory optimization for motion planning • Learning-based perception in geometric settings All material is available publicly, including slides and notes. 📍vnav.mit.edu If you know other solid resources on vision-based autonomy, feel free to share them. —— Weekly robotics and AI insights.

STL?

thats what ive been saying haha

I tried. No politician would listen. @loyalmoses tried. No politician would listen. Others tried. No politician would listen. WA HB 2320 has been sent to the governor to sign into law. I have no doubt he will sign it. Once this is law, it sets precedent for similar bills in other states. THIS makes the slope very slippery.

Coming very soon to a 3D Printer near you. The sheer simplicity of the ammo and the lack of professional tools is a part of the demonstration so don't get too hurt by this. This is a project we have been working on for a while known as the Deep ammo series. It is a 3D printed ammunition system that uses a printed hull, powder, a primer (whether printed or normal), and a projectile. As of now we have these cycling in revolvers, and both actions but getting something like this firing semi-automatic is difficult. Not impossible though, we are hard at work and I just know you'll be seeing more of these soon.
