First you said you watched a video that concludes an AR with a bump stock is a machine gun which is not true legally or mechanically. You apparently have no idea what defines a machine gun but let’s just say for argument a bump stock is a machine gun. Then so what? The 2nd amendment specifically protects our right to keep and bear machine guns so what is your problem? Why do dozens of federal agencies ninety percent that have nothing to do with law enforcement all possess machine guns? Nearly all local police departments have machine guns, and for what purpose? You seem to have a problem with the American People being armed as our founders intended.

A rifle with a bump stock is a machine gun. The machinery is crude but it fires as long as the trigger is pulled. The weapon is therefore automatic.

The legality you reference is of course obsolete

It is my understanding that there should be a very high tax and license required for bump stock and all other such crude conversions

“You seem to have a problem with the American People being armed as our founders intended.” “You apparently have no idea what defines a machine gun”

Nope..I’m all in on the 2nd Amendment and stop throwing BS around about someone you don’t even know. All I said is the bump stock makes an AR15 an automatic; maybe not by your technical definition, but in reality it does.

And I have no idea who you are arguing with, but I just want to know, Rambo...do you practice it in the mirror...you know “You talkin to me” style:)

By the way...If we had to rely on you and your “argument” on the bump stock to defend the 2nd Amendment, we would be screwed.
