A federal judge has delivered a blow to the Biden administration’s gun control policy by reversing a federal ban on so-called “ghost guns,” arguing that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) had overstepped its authority.
Texas-based U.S. District Court Judge Reed O’Connor on June 30 ruled that the ATF erred by saying that unfinished gun parts are guns and can therefore be regulated. His ruling found that parts aren’t guns under federal law.
