"A nationwide ban took effect Tuesday on bump stocks, the attachment used by the gunman in the 2017 Las Vegas massacre to make his weapons fire rapidly like machine guns.

Anyone in possession of a bump stock from now on can be charged with a federal offense punishable by up to 10 years in prison.

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives outlawed the attachments at President Donald Trump's direction after the Las Vegas gunman rained fire from his high-rise hotel suite on concertgoers, killing 58 people in the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history."LINK

Why waste ammo when 1 shot is all you need to hit your target.

I never understood the appeal of fully auto.

Banning the tools psychos use is the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

Have you ever seen thr damage Tim McVeigh caused with a Ryder Rental Truck, some fertilizer, and some racing fuel? I don't remember people blaming Ryder or the fertilizer industry. Where were the calls to ban rental trucks? Or weapons grade assault fertilizer?

Hypocritical dipshits.

An insane depraved person will find a way to cause mayhem. No matter what tools you ban. You do not squash the rights of the many because of the actions of a few.

I'm pro gun all the way, and I don't have a problem with a bump stock ban. No practical use other than to simulate full auto, which is also banned. Some of you snowflakes get your panties in a bunch over anything.

Who cares? No one actually uses them anyway. It was just a buzz word to make Dems feel like they are limiting people’s freedom. They can have that win. We actually are inching closer to having suppressors being unregulated so common folks can have them for less hearing loss. That’s what I want way more than a “bump” stock. Rounds are too expensive to be wasting them with that crap.

This is exactly what will happen with all guns. When the left says "no one is coming for your guns", this is what they mean.
