President Biden is expected to announce new firearm regulations as soon as Monday meant to contain the use of privately made weapons, people familiar with the matter said
The regulation on so-called"ghost guns" — unregulated, untraceable weapons made from kits — would classify the components used to make them like frames or receivers as"firearms," addressing a critical gap in the government's ability to track them.
The rule would also require manufactures who sell parts to assemble ghost guns to be licensed and to run background checks on potential purchasers of the kits used to assemble the products.The Justice Department has also launched a national ghost gun enforcement initiative, which will"train a national cadre of prosecutors and disseminate investigation and prosecution tools to help bring cases against those who use ghost guns to commit crimes," according to the White House.
