I spent a few years in my spare time, working for a FFL shop, . I don't think a crapy bump stock will fire 70 rounds without Some sort of stoppage,
As for banning a bump stock, I see no effect, it's just a photo opportunity for a tin horn politician.

Your an idiot if you can think if any reason someone needs to use a bump stock. The whole idea was to make a semi auto seem like a full auto. Yeah this is something needed shoot 1000 rounds to attempt to kill a deer. This manufacturer should be sued by the Victims and they would win by arguing this device was designed to dot nothing but cause carnage. You can't aim with them so no target shooting you cant hunt with them and expeCT to hit anything g look at the security guard 200 + rounds and he only hit him in the leg. And apparently not eBen a severe enough injury to prevent him from clearing guests out of the floor.
Fools like you want to clain there was some practical use for this but guess what there isn't. I say no need to ban just let the people injured and killed fluke a law suit and bankrupt the company.

Do you realize the NRA said we should lookin to regulating these as well. They have no purpose other then to allow some idiot who cant shoot hurt alot of people. With 30000 people as a target one sniper rifle would have gotten more kills. But that requires shooting skills something he didnt have. His lack of skill was made up for by the number of rounds he fired. Though i wonder if he didnt shoot himself by accident seems he had no experience with shooting. Cant even find a range he attended.
So why shold we allow a device that allows an idiot tocause mass casualties?
PS im all for the second amendment i have guns and wouldnt part with them.But i cant think of one reason someone needs full auto or something that simulates it.

Invalid comparison a van can be used for practical purposes. A bump stock has no pupose other then to skirt the law. You can't use it for target shooting game hunting or for that matter even recreational since it destroys your rifle.
It only has one purpose an attempt to cause mass casualties. A law suit could easily make this case and put them out of business. I'm all for the 2nd amendment but I don't see a need for providing a mass killing machine to the public. Even in the military we learned how ineffectual full auto is after 3 rounds your so far off target as to be useless. The only time it's effective is withing 50 meters.

I do believe this wouldn't have happened, at least not to the degree it did, in Vegas if the mafia was still running the show. Those boys ran a tight ship and were a threat to nobody who was in Vegas for legitimate reasons, didn't attempt to cheat the system, and minded their own business.
