Most guns have some simple way to convert to full auto illegally but if the talk is about preventing atrocities with bans, like the general discussion here, they are already banned.
For AR-15s it’s not a sear though, you’re thinking of glocks which function completely differently.
Yeah, DIAS aren’t $20 or that easy to make and as such aren’t as common on the black market. They are doable for someone with machining skills but for an AR a lightning link is the normal illegal conversion.
It’s not super complex design but it requires multiple, small and somewhat precise pieces. Someone with enough skill could absolutely do it but there are far easier options than a sear so homemade sears aren’t something that is seen that much among illegally modified ARs.
It wouldn’t really require skill if you had a ghost gunner. Clamp the little block of metal in there and hit the button. I’m sure you are right about lightning links being more popular though.
There’s more to it than just clicking print. DAIS require multiple pieces across several axles to interface correctly. Lightning links you can make with tin snips and a flat piece of steel.
Cnc vs printing semantics aside, the strength of the ghostgunner is milling out receivers, not crafting internals. True DIAS are far harder to make than a simple piece of flat metal over the trigger group. The simpler, easier to print, ones are far less reliable and common. A sear is not the preferred way to convert an AR.

DIAS is called a sear. I don’t know what that guy was talking about though.

It would be trivial to make one on a CNC machine. I would be surprised if you couldn’t find the files to do it somewhere on the internet.

Machine, not print.
