Politics Trump moves closer to banning bump fire stocks

[SlyPokerDog]

Washington (CNN) President Donald Trump announced on Friday that his administration will issue a new rule banning bump fire stocks, a gun accessory that makes it easier to fire rounds quickly from a semi-automatic weapon, mimicking automatic fire.

The announcement comes a day before large numbers of protesters are expected to descend on Washington, DC for "March for Our Lives," a rally organized to push for stricter gun laws in the wake of the school shooting in Parkland, Florida last month.

"Obama Administration legalized bump stocks. BAD IDEA. As I promised, today the Department of Justice will issue the rule banning BUMP STOCKS with a mandated comment period," Trump wrote. "We will BAN all devices that turn legal weapons into illegal machine guns."

The predominant seller, Slide Fire, offers them online. A 2010 letter on Slide Fire's website from ATF indicates that the company petitioned ATF to approve the device as a way to help people with disabilities simulate an automatic weapon without having to hold it a certain way. It's intended to “assist persons whose hands have limited mobility to 'bump-fire' an AR-15 type rifle,” ATF letter says.

Asking for the President.

Fine. Ban them. Paddock wouldn't have decided not to go on a crazy ass shooting spree but whatever we can do right?

No one who hunts on a regular basis uses one to hunt with unless it's to prove it can be done. That's a fact. Hunter philosophy is one shot, one kill.

Yes, but it doesn't work for hands that tiny.
