A 33-year-old Diamond Bar man accused of using a 3D printer to make ghost-gun parts at his home and selling firearms in the Inland Empire was arrested this week by Ontario police who say they seized an AR-15, a TEC 9, 21 handguns and the printer from his home.

Officers also found hundreds of rounds of ammunition, a shotgun, a bolt-action rifle, three machine-gun conversion devices, manufacturing parts and accessories including frames, barrels, slides and suppressors, police said in a statement.

“He was in possession of several illegal firearms,” Ontario Officer Joshua Luster said.

Officers served a search warrant at the home in the 2500 block of Harmony Hill Drive on Wednesday, when he was arrested.

The investigation started four to five months ago, said Luster, who declined to say what kicked off the probe citing it is still underway.

“He is illegally manufacturing parts of firearms and selling them,” Luster said. “We know he was selling in San Bernardino County.”

The suspect was booked on suspicion of manufacturing or distributing an assault weapon, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, possessing or transporting a machine gun, carrying a loaded firearm, possession of a loaded firearm while under the influence, and manufacturing firearms without a license, sheriff’s Sgt. Leticia Reyes said. The suspect posted bond.
