Lawrence Hurley covers the Supreme Court for NBC News.

The Supreme Court for the second time in two months allowed the Biden administration to enforce regulations to clamp down on so-called ghost guns — the firearm-making kits available online that can be assembled at home. In a brief unsigned order the court granted a request on Monday filed by the Biden administration to throw out a lower court ruling that gave two gun part manufacturers an exemption from the regulation while litigation continues. There was no sign of any dissenting votes.

Circuit Court of Appeals upheld that finding while concluding that the rule could still be enforced against the companies' customers. The federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives issued the regulations last year to tackle what it claims has been an abrupt increase in the availability of ghost guns. The guns are difficult for law enforcement to trace, with the administration calling them a major threat to public safety.
