this could be a stupid comment and a stupid question, but why didnt the FCG 9 creator make a 22cal version? 22cal is cheap (much easier to find for us in europe, and can be baught for 1000's for less than 100euros) same home defense, and with almost inexistant recoil, it would assure a 100% safety on 3d prints + to find a very cheap silencer to get the perfect home defense and "survival" weapon

[@agcast]

22 isn't nearly as reliable as 9mm, and rimfire magazines would be more difficult to make I think. I think it also has to do with 9mm being one of the most popular rounds, granted 22lr is definitely easier to get. However I understand your sentiment, there is a guy making a MODX 22lr variant that would probably interest you. I have some other fun things in the works focused on people who can't get 9mm or even 22 easily

Let's see...I learned to build firearms the exact same way John Browning did, with hand tools. HE made fully automatic weapons with a FILE, DRILL, and HAMMER!!! I can too. Consider Dr. Hiram Maxim (a dentist) who in 1877 invented the World's first modern machine gun one year after John Browning perfected the lever action rifle! Knowledge and more importantly IMAGINATION cannot be repealed or revoked. In PRISON "Carbine" Williams imagined the design of the M-1A Carbine and BUILT it IN PRISON with a file and a hand drill. And it WORKED!!! No blueprints, no paper drawings, no plans, just in his head.
