The NRA supports Ghost Guns. Do you support unregulated, untraceable Ghost Guns?

Yes

I don’t care

You can only vote on one answer.

Ghost Guns are cheap, unregulated kits that can build a gun that can be sold to teenagers, not traced and are so cheap and simple that anyone can buy them, build them and kill with them.

They are plastic so can be brought into sporting events, concerts, planes and schools undetected by metal detectors.

The NRA does not support any regulations on these.

Ghost guns are not cheap. Building them costs about the same as buying one complete & it takes more time. Especially with most gun parts being on backorder these days.

They're not plain plastic. They use polymer frames & still need metal parts so the bit about them passing through metal detectors is entirely false. The only gun I've heard of that can pass a metal detector is an FN Five-Seven & I haven't even confirmed that

urban myth bullshit, contains as much metal as any other polymer frame sidearm (and just as detectible), I own one.

@wildbill83 that's why I said I haven't confirmed it 🤷 because I don't see how they'd hide the metal parts, it's not like you can make a those polymer too. But dope thanks 👌

Always wanted one but I haven't even gotten into FN territory yet. I wanna try most eventually

@ChiefWalksWith40oz 5.7 is somewhere between a .22 hornet and .357 in terms of performance & ballistics

ammo is too expensive for them atm, and brass and heads aren't any better/are difficult to find; so I don't fire it much these days. reloading .357 sig is cheaper given the common brass/bullets (.40 case with 9mm bullet), and harder hitting than 5.7

They're both extremely accurate though, tack drivers at 30-40 yards. Biggest advantage to FN 5.7 is the capacity (20 round, or 30 with extended mag). Was the main reason I bought it at the time, too annoy all the 9mm glock fanboys that always brag about capacity, and 5.7 has about twice the muzzle velocity of a 9mm, and far superior penetration/ballistics.

@wildbill83 yeah I definitely wouldn't buy one with the prices of ammo in general rn. I only carry a 9mm currently because there's always ammo for it so it's just practical to me. But hahaha I'm a Glock fanboy I guess 😂 I don't stick to it it's just what I like. I've tried plenty of others & I still wanna try more. The only one I regret selling is my 45mm Colt Series 80

@ChiefWalksWith40oz doesn't help that FN has the 5.7 priced out of contention; can buy a decked out Sig or HK for what a 5.7 costs these days.

@wildbill83 Ruger makes one too.
