Ten Years Later, Media Still Pushing ‘X-Ray Invisible’ Ghost Gun Fear Campaign

Ghost guns — that is 3D-printed guns, guns with no serial numbers, guns that can’t be detected by X-rays and guns built at home using separately purchased parts — are now banned on Oregon streets.

These ghost guns became illegal on Sunday when Oregon House Bill 2005 finally took effect. A federal lawsuit filed last month argued the ban violated the 2nd Amendment of the US Constitution, US District Judge Adrienne Nelson denied it.

In 2022, investigators found a ghost gun manufacturing operation at a home in Salem. Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum made it a priority in 2023 to get them banned. And even though House Bill 2025 was passed last year, it took until now for the law to finally take effect following a series of legal challenges.

  1. The propaganda will continue until acceptance of tyranny improves.

    With that said how long did we hear deer and kevlar vests?

  2. My brother had that exact toy when we were little! It kind of worked? Then the bulb in the gun’s flashlight burnt out and it was a weird size not easily replaced, and that was the end of the Ghost Gun.

  3. Its amazing this “guns that can’t be detected by X-rays” lie still exists for firearms. Its been debunked hundreds of times by creditable journalist, researchers, and even in some cases by the anti-gun researchers, and in actual experimentation. It never was true to begin with. Even the polymer material used in some firearms, the material its self and alone with zero metal parts is detectable by “X-rays”.
