New York Attorney General Letitia James speak during a bill signing ceremony at the Northeast Bronx YMCA, June 6, 2022, in New York.Law enforcement officials have said ghost guns, created using unfinished frames and receivers, are partially responsible for the surge in gun violence and gun-related crime, especially on the streets of American cities.
According to the lawsuit, in May, an individual with a criminal background, who was legally ineligible to own or operate a firearm, received shipments from Brownells, after previously receiving shipments from Glockstore and Primary Arms. That same month, that individual allegedly used a ghost gun in a triple shooting that killed one person and injured two others in the Bronx.
Glockstore writes on its website, "You can build a completely legal handgun without any 'government oversight' aka interference…No fuss, no muss, no registration, no records." Pete Brownell, chairman of the Iowa-based Brownells, said in a statement to ABC News, "As one of the nation’s oldest, family-owned firearms retailers, Brownells has always taken its compliance obligations very seriously and we look forward to addressing these claims through the legal system."
How many turned up as murder weapons?
Greed
Dems sue everyone and blame everyone because they don’t enforce laws. No wonder people are leaving these states as fast as they can.
The lower receivers have serial numbers on them unless they are made on a 3d printer. They are allowed to sell parts, I mean, Get a grip.
There is no legal footing for prohibiting the manufacture of arms.
I think we all know who the public nuisance is , and hint hint it ain't the gun parts folks.
That place is a hell hole.
Screw them so hard, they cant afford a popgun.
And ..
Now do criminals. Wait nevermind. That’s your voter base
Will be struck down by the Supreme Court
I don’t believe you
That is quite a headline with a weak end tacked on to offer some deniability! You began with :'Ten gun distributors sold tens of thousands of illegal..'! Sounds definitive!Slick cop-out at the end:'a new lawsuit alleges.' Shifting blame. Still being shady! Your agenda is showing!
Lol. NY wants nationwide constitutional carry and ghost guns… bruh. Supreme Court will wreck these laws again
Oh, look. Another civil lawsuit by Letitia James.
Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven,no other way,heaven is real so is hell,if u ever go to hell u will regret being born.our God is merciful God but He is a consuming fire too, repent and forsake ur sins,Jesus Christ is still calling.
Good!! Government is too dangerous right now and those people will need to protect themselves. Best defense, is a good offense.
It's just a new way for NY to get guns from lawabiders since they lost their case with SCOTUS.
It is COMPLETELY LEGAL to build a firearm for yourself. The SCOTUS will end up confirming this. New Yorkers, dont let your tyrannical government strip you of your rights.
