Biden Announces New “Ghost Gun” Rule, Names New ATF Nominee
Biden Is Coming After Your Second Amendment Rights – New “Ghost Gun” Rule & Names New ATF Nominee
Tyler Durden with Zerohedge reports:
Hours after President Biden held up a Polymer80 80% lower pistol kit in the White House Rose Garden for the world to see while announcing new regulations on so-called “ghost guns” (unserialized lower receivers), Americans panic bought ghost guns.
Every pistol and AR-platform 80% lower kit was sold out on Polymer80’s website as of Monday evening.
Biden appears to be one heck of a ghost gun salesman today.
Summarizing this afternoon’s press conference in the Rose Garden, President Biden and the Justice Department announced new steps at regulating unserialized 80% lower kits.
The new rule, published by the Justice Department, requires manufacturers of 80% lower kits to include serial numbers. Gun shops will be forced to conduct background checks for anyone wanting to purchase these kits.
“It’s going to help save lives, reduce crime and get more criminals off the streets,” Biden said. “If you commit a crime with a ghost gun, expect federal prosecution.”
[Biden] picked up an 80% lower of a pistol and said: “This is the gun … It’s not hard to put together … Doesn’t take very long. Anyone could order it.”
Biden also asked Congress to do more to combat gun violence, including passing universal background checks, banning assault weapons, and high-capacity magazines.
Also, Steve Dettelbach was introduced as the new nominee for the ATF head.
