Gun rights groups in Oregon are calling on a federal judge to block a new law that bans ghost guns in the state. The law, which was passed earlier this year, prohibits the sale and possession of firearms without serial numbers, commonly referred to as ghost guns.
The groups argue that the law is unconstitutional and infringes on the Second Amendment rights of Oregon residents. They claim that the law is overly broad and could potentially criminalize individuals who unknowingly possess firearms without serial numbers.
Proponents of the law, however, argue that ghost guns are a growing concern and pose a significant threat to public safety. These homemade firearms are often untraceable and can easily be bought online without a background check. Supporters of the law believe that regulating ghost guns is necessary to prevent gun violence and keep firearms out of the hands of criminals.
The lawsuit challenging the law was filed by the Oregon Firearms Federation and the Second Amendment Foundation, among other gun rights groups. They are seeking an injunction to block the enforcement of the law until the legal challenge is resolved.
The outcome of this case could have far-reaching implications for gun control measures in Oregon and across the country. As the debate over gun rights and regulations continues to heat up, it is clear that both sides are prepared to fight for their beliefs in court.
It remains to be seen how the federal judge will rule on this contentious issue, but one thing is certain – the battle over ghost guns is far from over.
