Weren’t bump stocks fully legal until Trump made them illegal?
The investigating sheriff suddenly went mum on his findings of this peculiar case.
You can rapid fire a single action revolver by holding the trigger and “fanning” the hammer.
Is that a machine gun?

Oh cool! Of course that is the case anyway, you have to a special stamp which is really expensive but owning automatic weapons as a civilian is totally legal.
As long as you are not POOR.
Only rich people should be able to defend themselves.
Of course this is not what this ruling did but I had an extra case of sarcasm that is about to expire so I thought I would use it.
Hook a rubberband to a belt, hook it on your thumb, put your finger on the trigger and wala, you have a homemade bumpstock for a couple of pennies.
Anything to let the low info crowd know how out of control the “Republican” court is, just in time for the “let Trump get away with real crimes meme”.
Trying to convince the ignorant that Trump is really a criminal that no one should vote for. More election tampering by the MSN.
I’m so old I can remember when people who wrote serious commentary about an issue were expected to have some basic knowledge of the subject they were writing about.
A full auto mechanism is different. If the trigger remains retracted, the auto-sear releases the hammer after the bolt goes into "battery" and allows another firing sequence to begin. If the trigger is released, the auto-sear holds the hammer back until the trigger is operated again.
In each case, semi-auto or full-auto, the design of the fire control mechanism dictates whether a single shot or multiple rounds get fired with a single depression of the trigger.
The "bump stock" provides a sloppy way to use the motion of the WHOLE RIFLE experiencing recoil to "reset" the trigger between presses. It is extremely inaccurate and requires some skill to achieve a burst of fire. It's stupid range toy for people who have lots of money to burn dumping magazines full of ammo.
Hook your thumb in the belt loop of your jeans. Instant Bump Stock without regard to stock.
Do we need to outlaw pants?
My favorite is the 22LR bolt carrier conversion
I’ll stick to my trusty Tac-Triggers...
Oldies, but goodies...
The usual corporate media lies. A bump stock is nothing like a “machine gun”.

They did not legalize machine guns. The Supreme Court says that the Constitution requires “due process” and that ATF didn’t cross all the “T’s” and dot the “I’s.”
Will Democrats support not being charged for having an automatic weapon then?
You don’t need a bump stock, you can get the same results with a rubber band.

Ban rubber bands?
This decision was obviously mandated by deep staters who own stock in ammo companies. The more people who own machine guns means more demand for ammo, the higher the demand the higher the price. Simple logic.
The ignorance of the left is staggering in unimaginable ways.
How tasty that Sotomayor used Trump as an example in her argument.
I didn’t agree with banning bump stocks when it happened, but considered them stupid - and being stupid isn’t a crime or most Dems would be incarcerated...
Everything about the left is ruled by fear mongering. Remove the fear and theirs is a toothless monster....with each article written, they've made themselves more of a joke and have rendered themselves as nothing more than parody that should be ridiculed.
I was shopping for an Uzi full auto at Ray's guns in the mid 1980s. $1600, and that included a 22 cal conversion kit.
Then Reagan signed a bill that outlawed private ownership of any machine gun manufactured before '86. Now Uzis are ten times that price and I can't afford it.
Thanks Ronny. I always figured he had a private machine gun collection and wanted to increase his return before he shuffled out of the WH.
