The ghost gun epidemic

I don't get the reason for creating a gun when you can easily buy one unless you live in a country where they are hard to get legally. I am reminded that Sweden limited who can buy a gun so the black market began selling surplus AK's from the Balkans and they would sometimes come with a free hand grenade.

There was a murder case that got a lot of social media attention where a lady shot her husband after replacing the barrel of her pistol with the barrel of a ghost gun she bought, then she put her pistol barrel back on her gun. When detectives tested her gun, it didn't match the casings they found.

But they found video of her driving to the murder scene and pinged her phone, which also put her at the scene.
 
A stolen gun is untraceable to the person who used it in a crime. A metal detector cannot detect them but it is pretty useless without bullets which are detected. I would be more worried about a 3D knife.
In the murder case, the fact the bullets did not match the barrel just rules out that gun. Smart murderers know you dispose of the gun after you use it. If Dateline on Sirius XM is any indication, the number of smart murderers is pretty small. Take the gun to the lake, leave the cell phone at home. That's just basic murdering.
