Ventura County detectives arrested a 28-year-old Santa Paula man on Nov. 13 after searching his home on Santa Barbara Street and finding several 3D-printed firearms, a modified assault rifle, firearm components and other guns. The investigation began earlier this month after authorities received evidence that he was manufacturing weapons using a 3D printer. He was booked on charges including unlawful manufacture and possession of an assault weapon and manufacturing high-capacity magazines.
