The ATF is hoisted on their own petard.

How? Because they defined for years “auto” as one pull of the trigger with continuous fire.

With binary triggers, you get one shot on the backward motion of the finger, and another on the release. Thus your finger moves for *every* shot.

Now they want to ban that as well, but 70 years of “findings” they have made say otherwise.

I don’t own a binary trigger because I believe high rate of fire is pretty useless. Accuracy is where it’s at.

Not a flame, just a gentle correction.

The expression is 'hoist with their own petard.'

In the day, a petard was a mine. The expression means that the bomb-maker is killed by his own mine.

Bingo it's also excessively expensive. 5 Seconds of joy for $40.00.

You fail to understand the finer points of a binary trigger. They make controlled pairs ridiculously easy. You'd have to go through ammunition like Jerry Miculek to train to be be able to get two holes that close together with a conventional trigger.
