History
Ghost Gunner began as a limited series of CNC mills produced by Defense Distributed in a crowdfunding sale to its mailing list in October 2014. Spring 2015 shipments sold out almost immediately, and its first media reviewer noted the machine "...worked so well that it may signal a new era in the gun control debate, one where the barrier to legally building an untraceable, durable, and deadly semiautomatic rifle has reached an unprecedented low point in cost and skill."[1]
Products
Since 2014, Ghost Gunner has issued 3 generations of its CNC mill, with the latest being the Ghost Gunner 3.[citation needed] The second version, named Ghost Gunner 2, is open-source hardware, allowing third party manufacturers to sell their own versions.[2]
As of July 2018[update], Ghost Gunner had sold over 6,000 units worldwide.
