He said driving 180 in a sports car is fun too but not allowed. But did they ban the sale of those cars?
oh!
Correct! And you can take a sports car to a private race track or private land and still go 180 mph. The government doesn't prevent you from owning and enjoying a sports car just because it can go fast. So, his analogy sucks!
That may have been a counter argument cut out of the segment.
If people were killing 50 people at a time with them then yes we should look at banning 180mph cars. they have no utility just like the bump stock. When people cant go to a concert without the threat of being killed then the killing product should be banned in the interest of public safety.
I agree. Concerts should be banned. So should cities where mom and dad gamble away the kid's food money.@@mro4440

more accurately than bump firing otherwise and more accurate than many fully automatic rifles

True. But doesn't an accessory that makes it so anyone, even without practice or proper training use that effortlessly make the weapon more dangerous? Let me put it another way... if u could buy a product that could turn you into a professional athlete, would that be acceptable? Would it even be worth participating anymore? The fact that the creator himself couldn't answer whether he would feel differently if his children were harmed by an evil person using his invention should tell the whole story.

@@waimeagavin808 wrong! binary triggers fire on pull and fire on release. 1 bullet per trigger manipulation.

It is fires more than one bullet (or round) with a (or the) single function of the trigger. They didn't say single pull of the trigger because some firearms have a push trigger. It was in the oral arguments.

"that converts an assault weapon into a machine gun"... So what's an assault weapon?
There's no such thing! Assault is an action. I can turn anything into an assault weapon
i believe its a weapon class in video games
This is the biggest problem with the attempt to come to grips with guns here in the States. Language means everything. If you can't define something, how can you ban it? I have a Ruger 10-22 that by definition is also a semi-automatic that is, in function, identical to an AR platform rifle. The only thing you can assault with my Ruger is a squirrel or a tin can. Yet legislators not aware of this would create language that would treat both identically while the difference in power is the difference between a lightning bug and lightning.
An “assault weapon” is any and all modern firearms that the establishment/managerial class doesn’t want you to own while they arm themselves to the teeth with anything they please. For your own good and “safety”. Obviously.

Never used in Vegas. Those was fully automatic rifles. There is no way someone, even with hours of practice, can fire that constantly with a bumpstock. Listen to the sounds very carefully.
I remember seeing pictures of the hotel room and at least one of the rifles had a bipod. Anybody who's used a bumpstock knows that it won't work with a bipod.

A machine gun is defined as a weapon designed to fires more than one round per trigger pull. Neither the bump stock nor the frt do this.
yea they should change it to a single pull of the finger
@nickkerivan5780 no, that would be an infringement like the nfa
@nickkerivan5780 that would make your finger a machine gun and everyone would go to prison
*”per function of the trigger”* is actually the wording. That’s why binary triggers are also legal under the current set of infringements. 😂
@iDeagles yeah, one pull of the trigger "per function "
Those shots in Vegas did not sound anything like the cadence of the bump stock
It’s not about bump stocks but if the ATF can arbitrarily regulate on accessory, that means they can regulate pretty much any part of the weapon with impunity. We have a tyrannical government, let’s not give them any more power. I’m not for bump stocks but make the law, not have the ATF do random crap.

"Turns a weapon into a killing machine"? I'm sorry, was the semi automatic rifle not a killing machine prior to installing the "bump stock"? The worst statement I've heard a media presenter make.
The original bump stock made of wood PVC and duct tape just proves that literally anyone at home can make one of these things. So banning them won't stop people from having them.
Anyone at home can make a "lightning link", with just a piece of sheet metal and that will truly turn your semi auto into full. And it'll make your shooting more accurate because it doesn't make your entire gun bounce back and forth. People looking to do bad things will find a way to do bad things. Bump stocks are just toys used by people who like to shoot their guns. They aren't the problem. They were just trying to have fun in a way that was legal until big government decided to crack the whip.
I’m a little bit curious as to why a ban on fully automatic guns isn’t considered unconstitutional.
That’s the great part… it is unconstitutional. We just allow the abuse of rights to continue.
Because it would turn our country into a war zone like Afghanistan or Yemen. The right to bear arms cannot infringe on the right to life and safety. If you want to live like that, move there. Don’t turn our country into y’all qaeda or the gop taliban.

According to their logic, Jerry Michulek's finger needs to be banned for making guns fire so rapidly. A gun accessory that requires a certain degree of technique to make a gun fire more than a single shot is not a machine gun, which only needs you to hold the trigger down. No further action or technique is required.
"As fast as the gun will go." Yeah....nope. That will NEVER be a machine gun. Its just a toy.
Well you should know what he means by that.. A semi-auto rifle will almost NEVER shoot as fast as a machine gun, even if converted. Unless you're using FA rated parts, h2 or h3 buffer, etc. You could theoretically get p quick w/ a bumpstock like that. But also your rifle will be nearing 10k
Wait till they find out what someone can do with 4k pounds of metal and plastic moving at any speed above 0 mph.

Remember that the ATF is an Executive Branch Agency not a Legislative one and has absolutely no authority to be making policy in any way shape or form. If these people are trying to prevent gun deaths they are going to be quite upset when they finally start the War they've been building up to for so long. Dont comply with Unconstitutional Actions of corrupt Governments. Defending against corruption is a perfect example of why owning these devices is a CONSTITUTIONALLY PROTECTED RIGHT.

I don't object to making bump stocks illegal, I object to either the Executive or Judicial branch of our government making laws. Laws are the exclusive responsibility of the Legislative branch.

Hold the gun loose a certain way and this works without any modified stock. Like from the hip. Your finger just keeps pressing the button due to recoil.
My cousins with some of these types of guns demonstrated this when target shooting in the woods.
Bump stock vs machine gun. Bump stocks destroy the accuracy. A machine gun has more accuracy when rapidly firing and they fire faster. One bullet at a time is the most accurate.
I put a Luth stock a custom build of mine, it turned it into a way more lethal firearm. I couldn't believe the increased power and rate of fire over the traditional M4 stock.

once a loser always a loser, trump followers are ignorant as "F"
Any weapon is an assault weapon when used to assault people 😐 All of the people who push for restriction of the 2A literally no nothing about guns or gun crime.
It was banned illegally by the atf
Anyone who's going to do something like this and kill a bunch of people isn't going to be stopped by a bump stock ban. As the guy said a "bump stock" is just a toy. It let's you shoot fast but at the price of accuracy. When you use a bump stock the whole gun is sliding back and forth and is unsteady and therefore inaccurate. A real machine gun doesn't do this. Anyway, it easy to turn an AR and most other semi autos into a real machine gun. All you need is a little flat piece of metal, that just about anyone with basic skills can cut to dimension. These are what are often called "lightning links" or "glock switches" and they are much easier to make than a bump stock and unlike a bump stock require no skills or special technique. You actually have to learn how to use a bump stock because you must simultaneously push forward with one hand on the foregrip while pulling backward with your trigger finger on the other hand. If you watch videos where people use a bump stock for the first time you can see it takes a little bit of practice to master that and maintain fire. That's not the case with a lightning link of glock switch. Those are 100% plug and play. So anybody who has the intent to do some bad is much more likely to choose one of those instead and since they will make it themselves, there will be no record that they purchased it. It'd be much better to leave bump stocks alone and focus on those devices instead. Heck, even a coat hanger or piece of wire can be twisted into a shape that performs the same function but doesn't last as long, but for a mass shooter who's only intent is to kill as many as he can before he himself get taken out, that wouldn't matter. Bottom line is trying to outlaw the sale of stuff like this is going to have no effect.
In layman's terms the definition of a "machine gun" is more than one bullet is fired with a single press of the trigger. I.E. holding the trigger rearward continually fires bullets until the trigger is released. These bump stocks and other kinds of triggers do not fit the ATF's definition of a machine gun. I have a feeling that a law will be suggested that regulates the number of rounds a weapon can be fired per second/minute. That is a horrible idea but government officials tend to be terrified of guns. Instead of more gun control, the government needs to spend more time and effort on helping those with mental illnesses and keeping criminals in jail instead of these no bail policies. More people in America are killed in motor vehicle collisions than by firearms but that does not seem to upset politicians. Also, most shootings are committed by criminals with stolen guns, not people who legally purchase firearms. Just imagine what it would be like today if in the 1760s all firearms were banned in America.
The separation of the bumb stock and machine gun is very wide. It takes lots of ammo and lots of practice to use a bumb stock. The average shooter who has never used a bumb stock could not get more than two rounds to fire, it takes practice. I’ve seen people years ago give up on practicing because they could never get the coordination down between their left hand and their right arm. The method of successful operation requires forward tension on the forearm constantly while shooting. Most could never get the idea of operation in less than 500 rounds of ammo, most gave up. It’s very difficult to learn for many shooters thus the lack of protest.
I appreciate MR Cargill for fighting the oppressive over reaching federal government, the majority of gun owners didn’t care because it didn’t affect them nor the majority of shooters. I sure hope Trump doesn’t make another girly man’s emotional decision again if re-elected. Bump stocks are not needed to bump fire a rifle if it’s able to fire semi auto. This is why all gun owners should pay attention to what’s really going on, possibly. What if all semi auto rifles and shotguns were to be added to the machine gun laws. I’m sure liberal progressive sissy’s in Washington are salivating over this idea of having all gun owners with a semi auto paying the 200.00 tax stamp to keep their semi auto rifles. If the handgun arm brace rule is made a part of the package then handguns that are semi auto would also be required to pay the 200.00 for their permission slip to keep their guns.
It’s the understanding of many that if the proper paperwork is filed to own a suppressor, machine gun, or any weapon that falls under the the ATF rules then they are essentially giving up their 4th amendment right to unreasonable searches and seizures. I know it’s in the language because I’ve read it on the ATF forms. Most are gun dealers and this 4th amendment thing doesn’t bother them because the ATF comes and goes as they please. People who have an FFL form of any kind have essentially forfeited their right under the 4th amendment. Many will argue this point. Even if an FFL isn’t required then look back at history to see what they did to David Koresh, he didn’t have an FFL license yet the ATF said he was buying to many guns thus a search was ordered, no law was broken yet it didn’t slow down the ATF and FBI down. They’re other cases where private FFL gun owners were shocked to see ATF cops knocking on their doors. The ATF can visit a home and ask to see the guns and accessories that the owner has at the listed location they provided at the time of application for the FFL. Most of the time it’s a store address however they are many gun owners who have machine guns and suppressors registered under their FFL using their home addresses.
The ATF will inspect the weapons or accessories and the paperwork when they want too at the listed address provided at the time of application. Today there is no room for mistakes, zero tolerance under pedo joes america. The ATF loves people who follow the rules, those keeping the rules are most often the ones who get the ATF’s attention and the visits.
Bumb stocks are not machine guns, the firing of the weapon requires a single pull of the trigger each time the gun is fired. Machine guns require one pull of the trigger and the gun fires till the shooter releases the trigger or the gun runs out of ammo. Totally different animals. I can bumb fire without a bumb stock and it’s actually easier to use the method I use providing the shooter has a belt loop attached to their pants. Will the ATF ban all jeans and pants if they have belt loops? They could if they get their way with bump-stocks, but would they?
Well, they wouldn’t do that, yet they might. The ATF might just require the manufacturers to shorten or lengthen the size of belt loops attached to each garment, I could see this happening if millions started bump firing from their belt loops. It’s better to take no chances with an out of control federal government. We can always sew our on belt loops to our pants, jeans and slacks, I’d hate to have to do this though.
Dear Devin Dwyer: how do you know a bumpstock played a roll in the “deadliest mass shooting”? By that, I take it you are referring to the Las Vegas shooting; have you seen the police report of that? If so, the rest of American would love to know the details of that incident, as those files have not been made available to we, the citizens. If not, you are commenting on hearsay, which makes you a very poor excuse for a newsreader.
Spirit of the Law? What about Black letter Law? Where is Congress? Why is any Executive Agency allowed to change the meaning of words? The last I checked the ATF does not create law via regulations. The arguments being put forth against Bump Stocks is not sound. For those that missed Civics Class and ABC after school specials. Everyone has to agree or disagree about a Bill that may become Law. Yes Virginia, there is a process to go through. If you don't like a Law you must go through the process to create, modify, or sunset a Law. When that activity occurs civil discourse or not can happen. Activism disguised as lobbying is not news, It's Propaganda. Any lobbying organization purposely going against the Constitution should be held accountable for their actions taken. Some would call that a Felony, I would call it Treasonous. I will take Rule of Law any day over opinionated activism. Jeremiah said it best in his last statement.
as a hunter; it is kind of a dumb toy
what kind of accuracy are you going to get with that amount of play? out of polymer?
jiggling all over the place, it's just a range toy I think
I hate range toys, I live in California, you go to the rifle range, they don't even let you rapid fire, sold all my semis, only have a hunting rifle now
Man I love how those who swore an oath and continue to make money through guns and those who don’t know better stand up and work for groups who want the ban of all guns. Is there any practical point to a bump stock? That’s not the point. That doesn’t matter. Let’s apply this whole “spirt” bull to everything els in our world and see what people do.
legalize full auto. all bullets and all guns are killing machines. guns are not the problem people are. any argument against that is ignorant like the idiots who took this from us
"Creator" is a stretch. I remember buying Hellfires, and Tribursts in the early 90s. And even without those, its pretty easy to bump-fire with without any device. These new Bump Stocks were just taking that old idea, and making it a bit easier to use, but far less accurate. You can see the upper receiver bouncing around. I think they are dumb, but clearly not illegal. Clearly not a machine gun.
There are so many wrong terms and definitions in this video. Also, the main reason for the 2nd amendment is to defend against terrorists, foreign and DOMESTIC. Believe me, there is a lot of defending to be done in the near future!
Free men don't ask, additionally as a counter point to that Giffords dude and the reporter at 9:05: Any and all restrictions go against the spirit of the constitution. And: If I drive a super car at 180mpg on my own property, no one but myself is in danger. Cargill is right, this is about an agency making law.
"This converts an assault weapon into a machine gun"
Oh the amount of stupid in that sentence alone 😂
Assault weapons ARE machine guns. If it is semi auto, it's not an assault weapon. It HAS to have full auto capability to be considered an assault weapon, that is a NECESSARY component to the definition of assault weapon. Also, it has to be chambered in a "battle" caliber, 762x39, 556, 308, etc.
The 2nd amendment says "Shall not be infringed". The Founding Fathers were very specific in their wording in writing the Constitution. The ATF is a Government Administrative Bureau, not elected. The ATF isn't empowered to write the laws that litigate fines and punishment or prison time. Does the IRS, FDIC, FDA, CDC, EPA, etc change/write/create laws to put someone in prison? The FBI doesn't even write the laws they are tasked to enforce, Congress does.
Stupidest move Trump ever did
I'm the biggest 2A activist and this pushes the limits of semi automatic weapons this is the biggest grey area we have currently. But the truth is 3% of shootings occur with AR-15 almost everyone killed in America happens with pistols. We have a mental health problem not a gun problem.
Can you imagine someone that Advocates taking your gun calling themselves safety advocates😂😂😂😂 Warren versus the District of Columbia Police have no specific duty to provide services which means there is no one there for your safety but you
Why are people who make or use perfectly legal firearms accused of "getting around" the law? If I pay for my groceries am I "getting around" the shoplifting law?
Can someone here help me find where Trump regrets banning bump-stocks??
I keep getting people telling me he's owning it, and regretting banning them, but I cannot find it after
many hours of looking.
Anyway, FJB, FKH, F-ATF, and too many F's to go around to type.
"It turns a gun into a killing machine". Isn't a _gun_ a killing machine? Don't you mean "turns a gun into a _mass_ killing machine"?
And yet criminals have them everyday Without being Stoped but yet 2nd Amendment Advocates And Citizens who follows laws Are Treated like felons as soon as some idiot who wanted too hurt as many ppl as possible Goes And Does So
Yeah, I don’t know a lot of miseducation here. I heard a quote that said it could alter an assault gun into a machine gun. There’s some misinformation in that.
What bothers me the most about this is those people at that music festival overreacring to someone just having fun with a bump stock and exercising his 2nd Amendment rights...
is it just me or did they just add more sound effects in the Las Vegas video💀I swear some of those sound like they pulled it from somewhere else
"To safety advocates it turns a weapon into a killing machine"......ummm a weapon is already a killing machine...... Duh. Lol
The loser talking about the "spirit of the law" needs to look into why we have the Second Amendment in the first place. I'll give him a hint: It isn't for hunting or for fun.
People always seem to overlook that a legal, law-abiding citizen can own a machine gun, suppressor, SBR, or explosives as long as they are willing to spend time and money. They are not "illegal" (banned), they are "regulated".
Hilarious video! What an incredibly backwards argument! You'd say anybody would be able to tell the question is between 1. A fun mass murder machine and 2. Greatly increased societal safety.
If you listen to the gun shots from the Vegas shooting, that was not a bumpstock. The shooting was too slow and steady. It was exactly similar to a SAW...
Machine guns should be legal anyway, if you can be trusted with an ar and 30 round magazines, then full auto should be allowed.
We The people should be able to have them if the government can have machine guns and automatic weapons
The real catch? You don't need a bump stock to bump fire a gun... but don't tell the ATF that, they'll ban triggers
7:52 Would you blame Ford if someone used one of their trucks to mow down innocent victims?
No matter what their arguement.... I am and always be a pro bump stock , pro 2nd amendment ❤
Yall need to focus on human beings not things .😂
Things dont go around killing 😂😂😂
