Student who made guns with 3D printer jailed

A former student has been jailed for three years after being convicted of making guns using a 3D printer in what is thought to be a UK legal first.

Tendai Muswere claimed that he made the revolver and handgun as props for a university film project.

The former media studies student at London South Bank University, who was described as a “loner”, pleaded guilty earlier this year to two counts of possession and two of manufacturing prohibited firearms.
