Ban on Untraceable Firearms and "Ghost Guns" Manufacturing Tools
This Act introduces a comprehensive ban on the manufacture, sale, and possession of unserialized firearms, commonly known as "ghost guns." Citizens currently owning such weapons have one year to comply, after which possession becomes illegal and subject to penalties. The goal is to enhance public safety by ensuring all firearms used in crimes can be traced.
