The US Gun Control Act of 1968 allows for the assembly of parts leading to the construction of an unregistered weapon. ATF guidelines state that as long as gun parts are not more than 80 percent completed into a working firearm, then they are not legally considered a gun. That allows for retailers to sell nearly complete parts, with easy-to-follow instructions to finish the remaining 20 percent needed to bring the gun parts into a firing condition. Most online retailers ship across state lines using standard delivery companies. A complete Glock 19 kit is among the simplest kits to assemble, costing just more than $600, a few hundred dollars more than a store-bought Glock 19.

Guns are at heart fairly simple devices. As long as there are 3D printers and machine tools, the means to make a gun cannot be banned. The left’s knee-jerk cry to ban guns is futile.
The machine work is relatively easy. Glock pistols are easier than AR-15 lowers, “or so I’ve heard.”
“Somebody also told me” there are no serial numbers because they are legally homemade firearms. They are made for personal use and not for sale.
Ghost guns is another one of those cool “assault Rifle” terms.
That's not technically legal. A machine shop owner recently went to prison for doing that.
