So what were Biden's big gun control announcements today?  Doesn't it look like a big bund of nothing?

Biden confirmed he was putting a gun control advocate in charge of the ATF.  No surprise there.

He asked the Justice Department to see if there was anything they could do to require serial numbers on "ghost guns."  No actual action, just look into it. To explain this, the part of the gun that is considered the actual firearm, often the frame, can be sold about 80% finished and the work must be completed by the buyer, and then they also buy all the other parts and put it all together to make a functioning firearm.  Currently these do not have serial numbers, and Biden asked the Justice Department to look for a way to require one.

Lastly, Biden has asked the Justice Department to develop a guideline Red Flag law that states could copy.  This could be a good or bad thing from either point of view depending on how well they craft one.

In essence, it's all a steaming pile of nothing.

Judy and Charlie, I have a secret for you.  You know those old timey cap and ball revolvers you see in old movies?  Where you have to load the powder charge and the ball and then ram it into the chamber?  Those are perfectly legal for a felon to own too.  They can be purchased by mail order too.  FULLY FUNCTIONAL requiring no work at all!

At least with these "ghost guns" they are unfinished, and require further machining plus obtaining all the other parts like the slide, barrel, magazine, etc.

    It was nothing because he has no power to do anything. Any executive orders going to get pimp slapped right back in his face by the supreme Court. Judging on the dislikes of his speech on YouTube no one else likes it.

    Sound and fury signifying nothing. He just needs to look like he cares.

    Dear Uncle, 

    The problem that Biden tackled today was the problem of "Ghost Guns" in society.

    These are do-it-yourself put together guns that you can buy online and assemble at home yourself.  These guns are disposable and have no serial numbers and you don't need a background check to get them.  And so if you are a felon, you can just order one.

    This type of gun is used in a lot of crimes.

    After all, they are not exactly sporting goods for hunting.
