Is that correct? Are all sheet metal parts of the same thickness?
(Also your website links its images without https, even when viewed over https.)
Impressive work, though.

Well, if the Designer / Constructor is a German and currently living in Germany, he has of course to respect German gun law, which means he must not build a actually working firearm. He needs to install a dummy barrel and a not working bolt / boltface. Unless he is a licenced gunsmith, then he can do what he wants.
Now, the blueprints would be protected in Germany under their freedom of speech and science (article 5, German constitution) but if the blueprints would be released in the U.S. the ITAR would ban foreign citizens to get a hold of those plans.

So, if there will ever be some plans available, you have to consider where you host / release them, in what country.

If they are released in Germany, everybody can download them, but it would be wise to only include fotographs of dummy barrel and breech block / bolt face, just like Prof. Parabellum always does in his plans.
