In five or ten years such machines may be available. After all a mere fifteen years ago having a device you could surf the web on in your pocket at all times was considered science fiction. If there is profit in it, people will make it. Believe me.
That's still unlikely, even in the future. The physics involved in creating the ideal firearm make the machine inherently complex and, therefore, expensive. It may be cheaper. It will never be cheap.
The physics involved in making the ideal smart phone are inherently complex, and at first were incredibly expensive. Capitalism has a habit of discovering ways to make things faster, better, cheaper.
Yet here we are, 4 generations into the process, but no one is making smart phone chips in their kitchen, are they? There's a reason for that.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
