The final rule clarifies that the definition of ?machinegun? in the Gun Control Act (GCA) and National Firearms Act (NFA) includes bump-stock-type devices, i.e., devices that allow a semiautomatic firearm to shoot more than one shot with a single pull of the trigger by harnessing the recoil energy of the semiautomatic firearm to which it is affixed so that the trigger resets and continues firing without additional physical manipulation of the trigger by the shooter.

Just more designs on our freedom to defend ourselves. Is 3D printer software for these illegal too? You know, just in case space aliens do kill all our masters...

I'm gonna go out on limb and say non-compliance will be widespread.

NPR reports...

ATF estimates that the number of bump stocks held by the public ranges from about 280,000 to 520,000.
The bureau could not say how many devices have been turned over so far. An ATF spokeswoman said ?abandonments solely to ATF is not an accurate measure? because other law enforcement agencies may also accept such devices at the state or local level.

AND DON'T FORGET...

Those who believe they know someone who has illegally kept a bump stock can file a complaint with ATF. Fleming said the ban will be enforced just like any machine gun violation.


And as the world turns, they'll be replacing "bump stock" with many other words such as assault rifle, JHP ammo, 30rd magazines, bullet proof vests, etc. You'll see.

If you join the FPF I believe you are exempt from the ban by court order. Update in the lawsuit.

But I have an ATF letter saying they are legal... and I stopped paying attention to the news years ago when it turned into tabloid garbage.

^ valid defense?
