For the ghost guns, do you still need to have professionally manufactured elements standing pressure, like a barrel, or are ghost guns, in practice, made 100% with home made elements?
In the UK the pressure elements are regulated and need serial numbers whereas in the US it is the receiver, which could make creating these ghose guns easier.

- sgtnoodle 5y agoI'm speculating, but in the US it seems like the easiest thing would be to just fabricate the lower receiver and buy all the rest of the parts.
- speedybird 5y ago> For the ghost guns, do you still need to have professionally manufactured elements standing pressure, like a barrel, Yes, the 'ghost guns' politicians fear the most are built like that. Particularly, AR pattern rifles that have printed or home-milled receivers but are otherwise build out of factory parts. There are also some 'ghost guns' that are wholly homemade, with all the variable quality you would expect. Most of them are probably more dangerous to the user.
