The Biden administration announced finalized plans for regulating ghost guns, firearms without serial numbers that have proliferated recently. This comes months after San Diego police created a task force for cracking down on ghost guns within the city.
SAN DIEGO POLICE HEADQUARTERS – President Joe Biden Monday announced measures intended to crack down on so-called “ghost guns” — drawing praise from San Diego City Councilwoman Marni von Wilpert and county Board of Supervisors chair Nathan Fletcher, following similar actions taken by the city and county in recent months.
Said Fletcher: “President Biden’s administration recognizes the devastating effect ghost guns are having on local communities. I’m pleased they are taking action to better regulate the buy and build gun kits.” Ghost guns are unregulated firearms that lack serial numbers by which they can be identified, and are typically assembled from purchased or homemade components. Minors or those normally prohibited from owning firearms can purchase such a weapon without a background check.
Under Biden’s new rule, “buy build shoot” kits — do-it-yourself gun kits that individuals can buy without a background check and assemble into a working firearm at home — will be considered firearms under the Gun Control Act, which requires serial numbers on each firearm, sellers be licensed and background checks on purchasers.
