GHOST Act of 2025
HR 3373, the GHOST Act of 2025, requires entities shipping certain firearm parts (barrels, slides, or bolts) across state lines to register shipments with the Attorney General within 5 business days. This includes providing sender/recipient details, shipping method, and proof of delivery via certified mail or recipient signature. The bill creates a confidential database for law enforcement access but prohibits public disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act. Violations carry fines or up to 1 year in prison for single shipments, and up to 10 years for shipping 50+ parts in one transaction.
