You might need to define a few of those words. Squirted glock? Compensator? PLA? Lade? Invader v2? I don’t even know what your picture is meant to be of!

I might be able to translate based on my experience in 3D printing. I do not have a guns, though, which is what this appears to be about.
Glock is a gun manufacturer. Invader v2 is probably a specific model.
Squirted seems to be a slang term for 3D printed.
PLA is the most common kind of 3D printing material/filament.
A compensator is an attachment for a gun that I believe reduces recoil, but don’t quote me on that.
Lade I think is a typo and they meant made.
The image is of said 3D printed attachment on the business end of a pistol, presumably the aforementioned Glock Invader v2.
Definitely seems out of place on Beehaw.

Oh wow, homemade weaponry, yeah not what I was expecting here.
Looks like OP is a new user though so I’m guessing they didn’t mean for their question to end up here and with no context.

Eh, all the 3d printing stuff is par for the course, the only “controversial” part is gun ownership, but if they live in the united states thats just a normal thing (for some godforsaken reason). The technology community specifically seems like the wrong place though

I live in the US and it’s not the gun ownership that was weird to me. Beehaw has never really been a hotbed of 2A activity, so seeing something about it was weird. I don’t see an issue with this post, other than maybe wrong community. Also not sure on the rules around gun posting
