Oregon’s House Bill 2005, enacted in 2023, bans the sale, transfer, and importation of “undetectable” firearms, often referred to by gun control advocates as “ghost guns.” Ghost guns is a term used to describe homemade firearms or firearms without serial numbers. According to federal law, firearms that are manufactured and sold by gun manufacturers are required to be stamped with a unique serial number. Firearms that are manufactured by private citizens, and not manufactured for sale are not subject to this requirement. The law goes into effect September 1st of this year.
The Oregon Firearms Federation, a gun rights advocacy group, has filed suit to enjoin, and eventually overturn the law.
