Gov. Pritzker Signs Bill Banning ‘Ghost Guns’ in Illinois – NBC5 (Chicago)

"Because ghost guns are cheaper and easier to acquire than conventional firearms, they are more accessible to young people," Gov. JB Pritzker's office said in a release. Already this month, two teens in Illinois have been charged with possession of ghost guns, one of which was brought to a high school. Illinois State Police reported working on 28 "ghost gun" cases so far this month.

Pritzker Blames ‘Ghost’ Guns For The Crime Crisis Created By Democrats’ Soft On Crime Policies

A new law to fight not the majority of the gun related (gang related) crime in the state. JB the Hutt goes after gun hobbyists instead. Another useless, do-nothing law from our useless, do-nothing state legislature, signed by our utterly feckless governor, and will be ignored by the completely worthless Kim Foxx.

These people must go, or the state resident taxpayers will.

Federal laws permits individuals to build firearms for personal use. After zip guns, the most easily constructed firearms out of scrap metal are submachine guns. These homemade arms
are a big problem for the police in Brazil and Ireland. Illinois has many home and small industrial machine shops and ammo can be purchased without D in adjacent states. Gun
control by government edict is dead!
