Gun Control & RKBA

I want to see at least some improvements to our current gun laws pass in this Congressional session. If Sen. Dianne Feinstein tries to add another Assault Weapons Ban to the current legislation in process it will ruin any chance of passage. History does often repeat itself.

I’m not attacking DiFi was much as I am pointing out that if she pushes for a new AWB at this time it will be counterproductive. There are times when I support some of her ideas for new gun control laws. For example:

I’ve had some experience with fully automatic assault weapons in the military and in civilian life. (Some will tell you that you can’t own a fully automatic firearm in this nation but that is false. Such weapons are tightly regulated and outrageously expensive to purchase.)

While shooting a firearm in the fully automatic mode is to some “fun” I find it wastes ammo and unless fired in short bursts the weapon will climb dramatically so you will effectively end up shooting butterflies.

A bump stock makes a semiautomatic rifle act somewhat similar to a fully automatic rifle. Since I see little use for a fully automatic rifle I see no real use for a bump stock.
