In the most allowable context interpretation of 2A where most any gun/type/apparatus would be operative, I’d say you’re right.

But I can certainly understand what prompted him to ban bump stocks. Tremendous pressure. We’d JUST been through that Las Vegas concert fiasco and NOTHING from our ATF, FBI or any LE for that matter except that “bump stocks make machine guns” and they be bad. So, I’m not gonna sit here and say he’s against 2A. Leftists, media and gun haters everywhere worked a successful campaign to put bumpstocks in the same leftist rhetoric category as “gun show loopholes,” “straw purchasers,” and private sales without NICS checks.

That is probably the worst possible argument you can make. We elected him to stand up to the pressure. That’s what he was supposed to do. Follow that logically; now the pressure is to ban sporting rifles. Would he succumb to that pressure as well?
