They already print with ceramics and even metal. It's not a solid metal though, so not as strong as forged or milled.
I've seen that politicians have tried to float the idea of banning any sort of plastic guns to try and spur off the 3d printed trend, but then people will just print them with something else. Like the metal or ceramics.
Meaning we have pretty much come to a point with technology that it will be like trying to fight a losing battle on any sort of meaningful gun control. Granted at this point anyway home printed weapons would be extremely rare but who knows how far advances in home printers will go in say 10 years.
