Anti-gun bigots do the gun control dance, as usual
HuskerXDM:
There is no need to do any research when all you have to do is get a sound bite out for the masses to repeat for you.

My brother sent me a screenshot of an auction that looks like GB and a bumpfire auction is up to $655.
IDIOTS!

I'm too much of a cheapskate to want full auto; a trip to the range costs me enough the way it is. But that's my decision to make, not the government's. If somebody wants to blow through that much ammo in a few seconds it's his business. It really doesn't give him any more capability to commit mass murder than he could have even without a gun at all. But I do wish I had a bump-fire stock to sell now that a panic seems to be unfolding.

“They” are not alone in drawing this line in the sand. The NRA has come out saying bump stock legality needs further review, the Trump administration spokeswoman has also said they’re looking at it, and both sides of the aisle have also said so.
This is not really subjective. In my email I set forth an objective logic test which I referred to as “indiscriminate” versus controllable fire. I lump indiscriminate / uncontrollable fire in the same category as hand grenades and RPGs; maybe useful in certain situations in a military skirmish but that’s about it.

But grenades and rpgs ARE useful and legal, as they should be. We shouldn’t be hammered with an NFA tax for them either. We don’t need your subjective ok on the arms we use. One time use in a crime and that’s enough to act. Caution setting that standard. Ask England and Australia.
The NRA is not really about gun rights anymore. Just a club pedaling wine and insurance. I struggle with renewing every year and regret it every time I get email or snail mail.
