Attorney General Aaron Ford has announced that Nevada will continue to enforce self-assembled firearms or ghost gun laws after a district court ruling upheld its constitutionality.
The court largely sided with the state’s arguments, affirming that Nevada’s ghost gun law aligns with public safety objectives and legal traditions surrounding firearms regulation.
Ford emphasized the importance of such laws in addressing the ongoing issue of gun violence in the U.S., particularly mass shootings.
“Reasonable, common sense gun laws make Nevada a safer place to live and visit, and our state’s ghost-gun law furthers this goal,” Ford stated.
He reaffirmed his office’s commitment to defending legislation that promotes safer schools, neighborhoods, and public gatherings.
The court ruled that the lack of historical regulation on self-assembled firearms did not have implicit approval by the nation’s founders. Given that ghost guns are a modern phenomenon, the ruling asserted that public safety concerns justify current regulatory measures.
