Ya its not like in the past they did actually ban simi auto rifles. I am sure they cant ban an item that even a large number of gun owners think are stupid/useless.
I don't think they'd ban slide fire stocks. The fact remains that it's a single trigger pull per round so it's stated by definition a semi-auto
But I guess I'll have to go buy one now to be safe

I realized that majority of these gun scares following mass shootings are like "going out of business" sales. They make you think it's closing to buy everything up. Then 2 weeks later they're open like normal. Unless we don't have another Clinton style ban. I don't think anything will be banned. It'll all sell out like hot cakes but not banned

Too many republicans are lining up with the dims not to ban something I'm afraid.
I'm sure some that didn't even know about them until now have ordered it before they can't.
Honestly whether it's a gun scare or a hurricane it amazes me what people will buy because of mass hysteria. People who don't need a bump stock buying one and people who never leave their apartment buying giant $700 yeti coolers because of a hurricane and never using it again afterwards

(FAIRFAX, VA) - The National Rifle Association today issued the following statement: ( https://home.nra.org/joint-statement )
"In the aftermath of the evil and senseless attack in Las Vegas, the American people are looking for answers as to how future tragedies can be prevented. Unfortunately, the first response from some politicians has been to call for more gun control. Banning guns from law-abiding Americans based on the criminal act of a madman will do nothing to prevent future attacks. This is a fact that has been proven time and again in countries across the world. In Las Vegas, reports indicate that certain devices were used to modify the firearms involved. Despite the fact that the Obama administration approved the sale of bump fire stocks on at least two occasions, the National Rifle Association is calling on the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATFE) to immediately review whether these devices comply with federal law. The NRA believes that devices designed to allow semi-automatic rifles to function like fully-automatic rifles should be subject to additional regulations. In an increasingly dangerous world, the NRA remains focused on our mission: strengthening Americans' Second Amendment freedom to defend themselves, their families and their communities. To that end, on behalf of our five million members across the country, we urge Congress to pass National Right-to-Carry reciprocity, which will allow law-abiding Americans to defend themselves and their families from acts of violence."
Yep
And that's THE EXACT WORDS I quoted to my wife when I explained to her that the AWB of 94 made "assault weapons" MORE popular and MORE available. Before that, only very few people (compared to nowadays) cared or had even heard about them, and the most popular one was the Mini14, but only "a few nuts up in Montana had them.
Maybe a response to HRC, "See, we're the good guys". Bowing to pressure isn't any better than those that have no clue what they are talking about.
