Frequently Asked Questions

Why did a California judge reject parts of the ATF's ghost gun regulation?

A California federal judge ruled parts of the ATF's ghost gun regulation unlawful because the agency failed to adequately consider how easily incomplete firearm receivers can be converted into functional firearms using readily available jigs and tools.

What is the main legal argument against the ATF's ghost gun rules?

The central legal argument is whether an 80% receiver, sold without specific jigs or instructions, is 'readily convertible' into a functional firearm. The judge found the ATF did not sufficiently account for the ease of conversion with accessible tools.

What does 'readily convertible' mean in the context of ghost gun regulations?

In this context, 'readily' is defined as a process that is 'fairly or reasonably efficient, quick and easy,' but not necessarily the absolute fastest or easiest. The availability of common tools like drills was considered.

Who sued the ATF over ghost gun regulations in California?

The state of California, along with the Giffords Law Center, sued the ATF in 2020. They argued the bureau's rules did not go far enough to regulate untraceable homemade guns.
