3DEO was established 2 years ago and specializes in 3D printing of metal firearm components. “We shipped 30,000 pieces in 2018,” Company President and Co-founder Matt Sand said. “And our goal for this year is to ship 200,000.”

Its customers today include nearly two dozen gun manufacturers, most small- and medium-size companies. Sand is careful not to drop names, although at least one handgun introduced this year contains six 3D metal-printed parts.

“This industry is our priority,” the Air Force veteran and gun owner said. “We definitely found a home here … despite being located in California.”
