Today on Focal Point, Mike Glover and Andy Stumpf discuss new proposed rules that could crack down on 3D printed "ghost guns."
From ABC News 4 NY: Rep. Ritchie Torres, D-N.Y., on Friday called on New York Gov. Kathy Hochul to close state “loopholes” which allegedly enabled Luigi Mangione to use a “ghost gun” in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
“The probable use of a 3D-printed ghost gun by Luigi Mangione to assassinate Brian Thompson, the CEO of United Healthcare, underscores the need for a complete and comprehensive prohibition of ghost guns in New York,” Rep. Torres wrote in a letter to the governor. “The explosion of ghost guns onto the streets of New York and into the hands of dangerous people has led to an unprecedented crisis in public safety ... I am respectfully calling upon you as Governor to include in your executive budget proposal legislation that closes the manufacturing loophole in ghost gun laws and closes the ghost gun loophole in gun manufacturing laws. No stone can be left unturned in the New York’s fight against gun violence, which has been compounded by the proliferation of privately made firearms.”

A criminal complaint in Pennsylvania describes the weapon in Mangione’s possession as a black 3D-printed pistol, loaded with nine-millimeter rounds in a Glock magazine, with a handle made of plastic and a slide and a threaded barrel made of metal. The complaint notes Mangione was carrying a 3D-printed silencer as well.
