Last weekend in Bucks County, a gunman used a semi-automatic ghost gun to commit a triple homicide and then fled to New Jersey in a stolen vehicle. This triggered an interstate manhunt, and forced the Falls Township community into a weekend-long lock down, canceling their St. Patrick’s Day parade.[1]
But it doesn’t have to be this way. Legislation to effectively ban ghost guns is coming to final votes on the PA House floor in the coming days and I need you to urgently contact your Representative today and ask them to vote YES on this life-saving legislation.

HB 777[2] is a bill that would ban ghost guns as we know them. Right now in Pennsylvania, anyone can purchase kits to assemble untraceable firearms, known as ghost guns, without passing a background check. These kits require no specialized skill and, critically, lack the serial numbers law enforcement rely on to trace weapons used in crimes.
This bill would change that forever. It would require manufacturers to serialize ghost gun kits, and purchasers to pass a background check before acquiring these deadly weapons. It would reduce violence by treating ghost guns the same way we treat every other gun in the Commonwealth.
This bill is a no-brainer, and it would save the lives of countless Pennsylvanians. We must call on our Representatives to pass this vital legislation. Will you join me in taking action by emailing your Representative, and demanding they vote YES on HB 777? Simply click here or on the button below to send them a message.
