Tendai Muswere, 26, claimed he was planning to use the weapons as props in a sci-fi film he was preparing to shoot.
A university student in the U.K. has been jailed after successfully creating handguns using a 3D printer, in the country's first prosecution of its kind.
The student did not have a firearms licence, but told police that the guns were for use in a university film project. He was also found in possession of ammunition, which Muswere claimed he found in a park. Analysts said the weapons were not functional, but that Muswere only needed steel tubing to allow him to fire the weapons. Claire Holder, of the Crown Prosecution Service, said that while the recovered weapons could not fire,"he was using 3D designs found on the internet which were specifically for the making of live firearms."
. Kearney said his client struggled with anxiety issues, suffered from paranoid schizophrenia and was a regular smoker of cannabis, but had no history of association with criminals.
