      There are a plethora of affordable options that are cheaper than a console or a nintendo switch nowadays.

      Hi-points aren’t fancy, but they’re reliable and cheap, you can pick up a 9mm pistol for around $200 or less.

      Farther up you’ve got PSA, where you could pick up a Dagger (glock clone) for $300 and an AR-15 for $399.

      You probably should plan to spend more then twice what the gun is worth. Ammo to train, ammo to have, extra mag or two.

      Not really… You can get a cheap pistol or a shotgun for $200-$300, solid reliable handguns start at ~$450 and you can get a military grade rifle for $800

      It’s not nothing, but it’s the same price range as most phones - if you want the fancy one with brand recognition you’ll pay twice as much, but you can get quality pretty cheap if you do your research

        You can’t 3d print entire (functional) guns, and the materials that you need to print the parts that you can are expensive as hell. You’ll end up spending more.
