Bump stocks now legal?

[BirdsThaWord]

Not sure how I interpret this. Not that I want one. I’d rather have a binary trigger. But, what do you guys think?

I read the military determined a bump stock is not a machine gun. But I think they are still illegal. They were legal for quite awhile and I thought about buying several just because I knew they would some day do that but I didn't.

I've heard of some guys that can mimic a bump stock just in the way they hold the gun, kind of loosely. I really wouldn't want one either other than they say I can't have one.

I’ve seen “the rubber band trick” used to mimic one, and a few other vids about ways to “bump fire” one too. Funny, I thought the same as you, buying some just to have some, but the prices were crazy when I looked at them. I may just get me a binary trigger one day though. Tough to spend that kind of $ on one though as I sure I’d only use it a few times, given ammo prices these days. Good ol gubmint sure has loused up my range escapades as of late!

See, they're doing us a favor, saving us money on ammo.
