Kim Dotcom Orders 3D Printing Gun Blueprint Pulled From Mega Upload File Sharing Site

The US government is investigating whether the gun design, created by US-based company Defense Distributed, breached arms-control laws relating to shipping weapons overseas by making the plans publicly available online.
