Confiscated 'ghost guns' displayed at a news conference in New York by city officials AFP The US Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld Biden-era federal regulation of untraceable "ghost guns" -- firearms sold in easy-to-assemble kits -- in a defeat for the powerful gun lobby. Gun manufacturers and gun rights groups had challenged a 2022 Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) rule that requires ghost guns, like other firearms, to have serial numbers and for their purchasers to undergo background checks. The ATF rule also requires commercial sellers of what are known as "buy-build-shoot" kits, which sometimes include parts made by 3D printers, to be licensed and maintain records.
