For Star subscribers: Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich joins a lawsuit against the federal agency over its attempt to reduce the proliferation of 'ghost guns,' or 'unserialized, privately made firearms.'
Howard Fischer Capitol Media Services PHOENIX — Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich is joining a lawsuit to bar the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms from cracking down on what the agency considers"ghost guns.''
The lawsuit was originally filed earlier this month in North Dakota by a licensed firearms dealer, Gun Owners of America and Eliezer Jimenez, a member of that group who makes his own firearms from parts he acquires. There was no immediate comment from ATF, which has yet to file a formal response to the original lawsuit.
Linked to that is a new definition the agency is proposing for a"privately made firearm.'' Challengers say that terms does not exist — and has never existed — in federal law.
