    I'm sure I'm not to the point of calling for anyone's head yet. First, it doesn't involve giving up any firearm or right. Second, it's a suggestion for a "review" of a firearm accessory. This will take some time which means that cooler heads may prevail when it actually happens.

    Rep. Steve Scalia, who was shot at a Congressional baseball practice, has urged legislators to not rush any legislation on this. He points out that most people had never even heard of a bump stock before this incident. I also think we shouldn't rush into judgment with the NRA's approach.

    The NRA believes that devices designed to allow semi-automatic rifles to function like fully-automatic rifles should be subject to additional regulations.
    That doesn't sound like they just looking for a "review".

    A bump stock does not allow a semi-automatic rifle to function like a fully-automatic rifle (finger pulls the trigger, one pull per shot). A semi-automatic rifle can also be bump fired without the accessory.

    The only accessory that will allow a semi-auto to function like a fully-automatic is an auto sear.
