The Trump administration is officially banning bump stocks, @LauraAJarrett reports. Under a new federal rule, those who possess bump stocks will get 90 days to turn them in from the date the rule is published in the federal register.

That's really pretty much all they're good for.
Accuracy drops to essentially nothing, just to half-ass sneak in the "ratatatatat" effect. The only way to actually hit anything is to fire into a crowd.

The same general effect can be had by just holding the gun loosely, or sticking a tennis ball between the buttstock and your shoulder.

Okay. So how many shootings are done with bumpstocks? I don't have issues with banning them I just feel like its not something to get worked up about on the pro-gun control side. They don't seem to be used at all outside of that one iconic instance and the threat of a ban has probably lead to the circulation of them increasing three fold.

Quite a few, I'd suspect. Just not shooting of people.
Many, many haybales have likely been massacred, however.

It's just a dumb little toy that's fun for about fifteen seconds, but has a huge potential for mayhem.
I don't think there's really that many "gun nuts" who will miss the things.

Thus, it's a token ban for feelgoodism value and little else.
Gat Cranks are probably next.

We wait I guess. It'll be interesting at least.

No weapons should be banned.

Well I for one feel safer. A device that turns a safe semi-auto into a fierce weapon of war has no place on our streets. We are just lucky that criminals are too stupid to use bump stocks even after seeing the Vegas shooting.

Or maybe bump stocks are almost never used to commit crimes and this is just a feel good "look, we're helping!" regulation. Nice work, Trump administration.

The "weapon" part of that set up is not banned, only an additional attachment.

Absolutely nothing unless they get caught using it, or somehow their home gets raided by the authorities and they find it. Then they have a felony on their record.

I don't think the people who won't hand them over are going to worry too much about a felony.

Yeah the ATF will just kill them like Maryland police killed Gary Willis while seizing his guns without due process.
