What a Bump Stock Does, and Why People Want Them
Hard for me to tell the difference between one of those jihad recruiting videos and this.
Thank you for your wise thoughts about how being able to have a conversation with someone holding a different viewpoint requires understanding their viewpoint. That willingness to walk in the other person's shoes to see things through their eyes is sadly missing from today's political and social discourse.
This video reminds me of the Marlboro man. Don't gun owners realize how advertising can manipulate you?
While a normal article on this site has slim to none comments of course this one has several, not surprising at all.
Like our dear "Collage prof" Bob said, machine guns are legal, as long as you have the proper paperwork/bunches of money. No new machine guns are being made to be purchasable by normal citizens, ever since 1986. So, you need paperwork or bunches of money to buy the ones that were made before then.
Also while bump-fire stocks make it easy to fire in a manner similar to automatic rifles, you don't actually need one to shoot in that manner.
Also Also, maybe Bob is actually a collage prof, a prof of making collages? ha.
> While machine guns are legal, bump stocks are perfectly legal and can be ordered online for as little as $100.
I appreciate this post on so-called "bump stocks". Most anti-gun nuts and gun grabbers are very ignorant about guns. I get tired of hearing the anti-gun crowd chattering about "assault weapons", and "automatic weapons", without having any idea what they're actually talking about. BUT, one class of shooters bump stocks were made for, is some persons with some physical disabilities in fully using their hands and arms.
the video for a similar product (hell-fire trigger system) is truly incredible https://youtu.be/v7OCFNpicso?t=30s "Comes complete with instructions for mounting and an Official Letter of Legality from the ATF."
