Supporters of the bill say it's necessary to thwart convicted felons who use 3D printers to develop untraceable 'ghost guns.'
New York residents eyeing a new 3D printer may soon have to submit a criminal background check if a newly proposed state bill becomes law. The recently introduced legislation, authored by state senator Jenifer Rajkumar, aims to snub out an increasingly popular loophole where convicted felons who would otherwise be prohibited from legally buying a firearm instead simply 3D print individual components to create an untraceable “ghost gun.
recently traced some online ghost gun sales to a “ghost gun printing operation” filled with 3D printers and firearms nestled within a daycare center. “To those who think printing 3D guns is the way of the future. You are wrong,” Commissioner Edward Caban said during a press conference following the daycare siege. Ghost gun seizure figures aren’t any more reassuring on the national level either. A recent report released by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives notes a 1083% increase in ghost gun recoveries from 2017-2021, figures they say are likely underreported. A handful of states, including Huawae, Delaware, and New Jersey, have each passed their own legislation banning 3D-printed firearms.
