Media Vilifies Polymer80 In Preparation For Biden's "Ghost Gun" Rule Change

• https://www.zerohedge.com, by The Machine Gun Nest

Their latest target? Polymer80.

For those unfamiliar with Polymer80, they are a company that produces unfinished polymer frames for firearms. With these kits, people can build firearms in the comfort of their homes 100% legally. Unless you have a criminal record, you'd be breaking the law. Remember that point because we'll be revisiting that.

The ATF has previously determined that Polymer80's kits do not meet the legal definition of a firearm. They even have a determination letter from the ATF to prove it.  

The Biden DOJ announced in 2021 that they would be pursuing a rule change to regulate 80% kits as firearms themselves. This is a dangerous precedent yet seems to be where the Biden DOJ and ATF are headed.

So, to prepare for this move, the corporate media has started its propaganda campaign. If you keep an eye on the news cycle, you'll begin to see many more articles about the "ghost gun problem in America." Check out this graph showing the increase in the use of the term ghost gun.

This media campaign is just the groundwork being laid so that Biden can step out later this month and announce that he's "won the war on ghost guns" with his new rule change.

While the DOJ and ATF point to an increase in the use of these privately made firearms in gun crimes, it is worth noting that if these so-called "ghost guns" suddenly disappeared off the face of the earth, criminals would continue to use stolen or straw-purchased firearms to commit crimes. 

For those unfamiliar with home manufacturing, it's completely legal under current US law to build a firearm at home for personal use. For those who own CNC machines or 3D printers, it's an easy process. For those who don't, it's much more complicated.
