Are we still arguing about this? The crappy accessories that most of us laughed at because apart from being a novelty at the range for the first 5-6 minutes, most of us know that they are a gimick and not practical and so we wouldn't want to own one anyway... but now that they told us we can't, we feel the need to whine and demand a product that we didn't really like or want in the first place...
It's like listening to a bunch of 9 year olds...
The product was designed to take a semi-auto, and give it the same relative rate of fire as a full auto, without all the paperwork and restrictions. The full auto's were put on the NFA list with to begin with, due to their rate of fire. So making it easy for other guns to have that same rate of fire, even if it did it by slightly different mechanics, you had to scratch your head and wonder how long that was gonna last, didn't you? Be honest.
Kind of like the "you can now shoulder a brace without it being an SBR"... Yeah, we will do it and take advantage of the "current loophole" because it suits us, but again, let's be honest... 99.9% of us buying AR "pistols" with a brace, aren't doing it because we are wheelchair bound and missing one of our arms. We have them because it lets us build the equivalent of an SBR, without all the paperwork. And look at the new braces... come with softer rubber, some are now adjustable, like a stock. It's clearly an exploitation of the loophole, that we all like and will take advantage of, but in the back of our minds we aren't fooling ourselves and we should all figure it's probably just a matter of time before they see it for what it is and shut it down...
I bet that 9 out of 10 people bitching about the bump stock ban, didn't own one and probably made fun of them as a useless gimick before the ban... We just don't like being told that we can't have what we want, even when we don't really want it.
There, now you can yell and scream for another 2 days. :-)
