Biden Expected To Release New ‘Ghost Gun’ Rules Within Days

President Joe Biden is set to unveil his administration’s finalized version of its “ghost gun” regulation as early as Monday, the Associated Press reports.

The incoming regulation is expected to crack down on unserialized, privately-made firearms, according to the AP.

“I want to rein in the proliferation of so-called ‘ghost guns.’ These are guns that are homemade, built from a kit that include the directions on how to finish the firearm. You can go buy the kit. They have no serial numbers, so when they show up at a crime scene, they can’t be traced,” Biden said in an April 2021 speech.

In the proposal, released in May 2021, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) also sought to require manufacturers and dealers distributing ghost gun parts to be federally licensed, as well as for licensed firearms dealers to add serial numbers to all unserialized guns they plan on selling, according to the AP. Background checks would also be required for the sale of kits containing parts necessary in the assembly of firearms, the outlet also noted.
