..aaaaand it's official. Bump stocks in the crosshairs
« on: March 23, 2018, 06:23:13 PM »
POTUS announced he is formally proceeding with plans to ban bump stocks.

Not sure how this will fare in the courts once it inevitably hits. Pretty long and detailed history of technical reasons why bump stocks are legal. It's gonna be a bumpy ride, folks.

"so I ended up getting the above because I didn't want to make a whole production of sticking something between my knees and cranking. To me, the cranking on mine is pretty effortless, at least on the coarse setting. Maybe if someone has arthritis or something, it would be more difficult for them." - Ben
