I’m not an expert on these things but can a ghost gun be converted into an AR15?

Or are they just lumping an AR15 into every conversation about any gun?

I thought a “ghost gun” was a gun that was put together from parts of other guns. You can buy those on line?

Maybe they’re saying that anyone that sells gun parts is selling “ghost guns.” That’s probably it.

A Ghost Gun is any gun that a buyer must complete to be functional. It means no serial number, untraceable; hence, “ghost gun”. A ghost gun can be any gun or any model; 1911, AR15, shotguns, any gun type at all. Liberals think all guns should be traceable. I completely disagree.

You could build a “ghost” gun from an 80% AR lower receiver (depending on what that term even means at the moment) but the place the blue rubber finger is pointing isn’t where the serial number would be anyway. Most of this discussion is people who don’t know what they’re talking about trying to sound like they know what they’re talking about.

““Payment processors like MasterCard absolutely have the ability to restrict transactions related to ghost guns on their platforms,” said Seth Magaziner”

An unserialized 80% complete AR-15 lower receiver can be finished and used to build a complete gun. Perfectly legal.

people their Constitutional Rights.

I, for one, want all leaders opposed to guns indicted for treason for the attempted overthrow of the government and constitution by trying incessantly to move toward gun confiscation (so they can take over completely with little or no resistance), tried and upon conviction, hanged publicly. I will not relent in my push for that no matter what.

“Payment processors like MasterCard absolutely have the ability to restrict transactions related to ghost guns on their platforms,” said Seth Magaziner, the general treasurer of Rhode Island, who wrote the proposal.

The textbook definition of fascism, when government blackmails corporations into doing their dirty work.

In Afghanistan US troops shot Taliban guys carrying guns.

The Taliban guys developed a fondness for roadside bombs.
