Twenty Attorneys General have filed an amicus brief supporting the ATF in a Supreme Court case concerning the definition of 'frame or receiver' for firearms, often referred to as 'ghost guns.' This action highlights a perceived contradiction where states advocate for stricter gun control while simultaneously supporting federal regulations that acknowledge the limitations of existing state laws. The brief argues that federal enforcement is crucial to prevent the proliferation of unserialized firearms and protect the integrity of state gun laws, which are otherwise undermined by advancements in firearm technology and interstate trafficking.
