You said:I didn't say that. Try again.
I'm not supporting it. But, I am going to enjoy the fall out.
Got that right. Just a little practice. Pretty damned good at it from my shoulder using above method. Can't hit sh#t worth a damn but it's still fun!Like I've said before....so what? It does not change the fact that people can do the same thing with just their finger and a stiffened arm.
Perhaps you should have someone teach you to shoot and then learn how to bump fire. Why would it be painful?Sounds painful.
Guess I'm not the only one wondering what calamity meant.So you are against banning bump stocks?
Had a lot of .303s some scoped some not including the "jungle carbine"but they were all dead nuts on at 300(except carbine) with the flip up aperture.Imagine in 10 minutes of undisturbed shooting what a trained shooter could have done with two Mini-14s, one with a red dot, one with a 10x scope, with just plenty of ten round magazines. Heck, imagine what someone well practiced in the Mad Minute could have done with a pair of SMLEs with a similar optic set up shooting soft point bullets. Probably a few less wounded but many more dead.
1. Do you believe that this action is an overreach of Executive Branch power?
2. Do you believe that a ban on bump stocks through either the Executive Branch or Congress would be an infringement of Second Amendment rights?
It is a nice start.
What I would like to see:
1. Require gun dealers to certify their federal license with the state police;
2. Impose a penalty on private dealers who fail to keep adequate records of private sales;
and
3. Impose the death penalty on distributors and pushers of illegal guns.
Define what a private dealer is? Why would they need to keep track of a private sales?

Lets think your silly suggestion through. If you make that a death penalty offense-what does that do to anyone who say may be a government witness against the defendant?
I envision putting guns in certain categories as we do with drugs and a controlled substance.
Actually, all guns need to be regulated but the illegal ones need to be handled by a special task force that can be created by the government - may be like a GEA - Gun enforcement agency.
We take down gun pushers like we do drug pushers..... that is the necessary path we need to move towards.

Using the 'war on drugs' as a model of success is telling. That effort has created a multi-billion dollar industry run entirely by criminals and causes over 50K deaths/year.
Part of the problem is bad acting countries creating a black barket smuggling firearms in this country. This solution is simple: freeze the sale of firearms to other countries or increase the price.

The problem is not caused by guns owned by law abiding folks - the problem is that when a person illegally possesses a gun (obviously a non-violent offense) then they often get a wrist slap sentence. That is precisely why the 'war on drugs' fails - there is little to no enforcement used to curtail the illegal demand (drug possession/use).

I think we can agree on that. Punish more severely those that obtain guns illegally and the entity that is providing the guns to them.
Why mess with the source? You have both the gun and the perp who illegally possessed it - remove them both from society. Once the demand for illegal guns drops so too will the supply.
Hopefully (yeah, I know) he's referring to the straw purchaser, not the FFL.
