3d printed gun? Very hard to get a gun in Japan.

Any idiot can put together a pipe gun. Would be interesting to know where he got the ammo from.

Looks like fully homemade with "brico-depot" stuff.
As for the ammo, if he managed to build his gun out of literal scratch, it is likely he wouldn't have had problem finding he necessary components to improvise makeshift bullets; mixture of charcoal with sulfur and saltpeter.

Wouldn't an electric, single use, gun circumvent the need for a primer?

No. The electric spark is not going to ignite the black powder, not in an efficient way, IMHO. Tank shells for example have an electric primer, but still a primer.

Old-fashioned plug in flash bulb and an electric charge across it
Used to make my own pyro charges
Plenty of gaffa tape to aid the compression - or a plastic screw on cap

This sucks big time, Abe was one of the more respectable world leaders in my book. A rabid and avowed anti-communist, truly a politician after my taste! RIP

Even with the strictest gun laws imaginable, crimes like this will still happen. May the victim rest in peace.
