Trump directs AG to ban bump stocks

[toddnjoyce]

Ok, what other two regulations are they going to get rid of for it? ...or is he going to suspend that EO just for this?

Gotta watch the federal register. I’ve been watching this closely and am surprised at this announcement by CNN.

I'll predict that this change will do nothing more than turn thousands of law abiding firearms owners into felons.

I don't really see any new information in the article, so CNN could just be bored...

No updates to the register since 4:15p yesterday. I’ll keep an eye out.

I might be too late to this party.

But i'd like to say- I think bump stocks are dumb and I would never pay for such nonsense.

Well now.... I fell better.

No he said he would never pay for one. He didn't say anything about banning them. Understanding what is is written is a plus.

I like firearms.
I like America.
I like my freedom.

But I have negative feelings towards automatic (or auto modified) weapons. Making every round count is too valuable to me. I don't like missing. I just have a hard time with the idea of spraying rounds like crazy.

I agree 100%, and would not cry one tear if they got banned... and then I remember there are tons of people thinking the same about many of MY guns and gun accessories and want to ban these also.
Hence, anything they want to ban or regulate, they gonna have to drag me kicking and screaming all the way.
Give them not one fucking inch.

I would not buy one either. But, I am a fan of freedom, mine and others. Except terrorists.

I'm with you guys. It'll be just like the smokers.

Smoke anywhere. Smoke on this side of the room. Smoke outside. Smoke across the street. Smoke down the street. No smoking at all.

Let's see if the NRA steps up with a law suit....

They should...

Ok, fine.
But think about this.
A bump stock was used in ONE mass shooting and gets banned because of it. Now they have a precedent for banning gun items used in a mass shooting(of any size) as too dangerous to own.

What do you have that can be used in a mass shooting of any kind.......


Still happy with it?

I don't want one either. Ain't even seen a real one.
And I'm not happy with it at all.

Please name one time in the last,.... forever years, that the NRA actually DID Anything as far as an actual lawsuit in favor of the Second. I've heard of them backing a lawsuit, or a court filing. BUT, have yet to hear of the NRA-ILA actually filing a case. They are all bark, and absolutely zero bite.

Are they wanting a out right ban? Or making it a NFA item?

I understand the principle. But fing people push the envelope and now here we are.....

The proposed rule requires the possessor to either destroy of the device or turn in for destruction with no compensation.

I would bet that SAF initiated those law suits and the NRA jumped on board.
