Jaw drops.
Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro announced Monday that Eagle Arms Productions, the largest gun show promoter in the state, has halted the sale of “ghost guns” at its shows.
Eagle Arms is the first gun show promoter in the nation to stop the sale of unserialized 80% receiver kits, Shapiro said. The promoter’s decision to stop the sale of “ghost guns” comes after the number of such weapons recovered in Philadelphia rose 152% from 2019-20.
More than 10,000 ghost guns were recovered nationally in 2019 alone, Shapiro said in his announcement. He was joined by state Rep. Amen Brown and state Sens. Vincent Hughes and Tony Williams.
Shapiro’s Gun Violence Task Force conducted two surveillance operations at Eagle Arms shows, Shaprio said.
