Again, the wrong hill to die on. Looking at the manufacturers own video on their own website, it’s clear this particular trigger is just a work-around to get full auto functionality.

Trying to ‘word-parse’ it away Bill-Clinton-style doesn’t change that fact.

The long-standing federal definition of 'full-auto' or "machine gun" is essentially, 'more than one shot fired with each individual pull of the trigger'. Bump stocks are therefore NOT machine guns, and neither are binary triggers (& FWIW, I own neither). Does the Rare Breed Trigger fire more than one shot per trigger pull - or not?

If the federal government wishes to ban "full auto functionality" (whatever that is) rather than "machine guns", the federal government should pass a new law, not ignore and/or magically reinterpret existing law...

They have what seems to be a well-credentialed person that disagrees with you.

larrytown - you are the one who is word-parsing. What I mean is that the Second Amendment is really clear.
Parse this: “..., the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.”
