Yes, just a tad warm.

That would have been fun to witness

The lingering fire is a nice touch.

DAMMIT! You should post a "trigger warning" on this thread. My wallet is sobbing in the corner now ...

Wish there were more details on the material used. The hobby printer I have access to gets up to 250C. Very cool though.

My ABS 22lr suppressor internals have lasted quite a while.

Sig is using a SLS steel/Ti/Al printer from the looks of it.

Looks like a fun job until you do it for a living. A friend worked for AAI for over 20 years and his job was to take new weapons submitted for govt proved use to TX and fire them until the barrels melted or the malfunctioned. His shoulder is a mess from years of bench shooting MG's.

Looks like I need to submit a resume to Sig, I can smoke this guy on reloads.
