Merrick Garland: Ghost guns are real guns. And we'll regulate them to save lives.
Last year, President Joe Biden and I announced that I had directed the federal agency responsible for regulating firearms, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, to modernize our regulations to reflect the fact that today's firearms need not be cast or forged but can be created from kits and by 3D printers. The Department of Justice committed to take action to prevent criminals and other prohibited people from easily purchasing untraceable guns.
This morning, the department is submitting a final rule that will help keep guns out of the hands of criminals and save lives
