    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.
