Predictably, gun control activists are citing the cold-blooded Manhattan murder of health insurance executive Brian Thompson to call for more gun control, particularly in the hot-button areas of “ghost guns” and “3D printed firearms.” There are at least two main problems with this. One, the facts of the case are still being investigated, and preliminary reports of the use of a “ghost gun” or 3D printed firearm are just that … preliminary. Second, even if the perpetrator did use a homemade, unmarked firearm with a 3D printed frame, virtually everything he did in New York and the other jurisdictions with which he has been associated would have already been illegal.
