"Deputy Ryan Rappisi and our patrol team served a search warrant today related to a previous traffic stop. The usual dope and illegal firearms were recovered, along with a 3D printer capable of producing plastic gun frames for ghost guns. Awesome job!!" tweeted Captain Matt Griffith. 

The video shows what appears to be an inexpensive 3D printer, likely the Ender-3 V2 3D Printer. Deputies removed the printer, and multiple printed lowers for pistols from the suspect's garage.

Griffith provided no further information on the 3D-printed gun operation. There was no word on if the guns were used by the suspect or supplied to criminal gangs. Without a serial number, police and federal agencies have no way of tracing ownership.
