DATA POINT

1,000 percent — the increase in ghost guns recovered at crime scenes between 2016 and 2021. [ATF]

Take the Biden administration to court, win a gun: Firearms Policy Coalition fundraises off legal fight against ghost gun regulation. The FPC, which has clear ties to extremist groups, won a preliminary injunction in October against the application of new federal rules to regulate ghost guns. The group is raising money for the challenge — and offering incentives, HuffPost reports. Its fundraising website says people who donate could win a pistol outfitted with a silencer. Loopholes abound: Dealers quickly found a workaround to Biden’s ghost gun regulations, and the rules don’t affect the potentially millions of ghost gun kits previously in circulation.
