NSSF Issues Statement On Bump-Fire Stocks And Las Vegas

Now is the time when every group that deals with guns will issue their statements regarding not just guns in general, but bump-fire stocks in particular. The National Shooting Sports Foundation is no different. Earlier today, the group issued their own statement following those issued by groups like the NRA and Gun Owners of America.

Our thoughts and prayers continue to be with the families and loved ones of all those killed and injured in the criminal attack in Las Vegas. The manufacture, distribution and sale of automatic firearms and their components has been stringently regulated by federal laws since 1934. We believe the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) should interpret and enforce existing laws and regulations. We call upon ATF to conduct a prompt review and evaluation of aftermarket trigger activation devices such as bump stocks to determine whether they are lawful to install and use on a firearm under the National Firearms Act of 1934 (NFA), or whether, if they have no function or purpose other than to convert a conventional firearm into an automatic firearm, they are regulated items under the NFA. We urge Congress to allow ATF to complete its review before considering any legislation so that any policy decisions can be informed by the facts and ATF’s analysis.

Suing bump stock makers. Banning bump stocks.

Both absolutely meaningless in the real world.

NO BUMP FIRE STOCKS REQUIRED to BUMP FIRE a semi-auto... JUST A STIFF FINGER

Neither shooter used a BUMP FIRE STOCK, but they did use their finger to BUMP FIRE their semi-auto weapons.

WHAT NEXT? BANNING FINGERS? SUING FINGER OWNERS?

If you think GUNS are required to commit mass murders, it's because that is what you are being taught by the media.

First, NO GUNS REQUIRED: http://ijr.com/2015/12/487774-13-mass-killings-where-no-guns-were-involved/

Second, with the right numbers presented, you can see how many guns Americans have is a moot point. Since only a handful are used to kill people.

They don't want you to think, they want you to react. Here's THE FAX JAX!

One guy on Twitter yelled at me, "Yeah, but MASS MURDER BY GUN IS A UNIQUELY AMERICAN THING." That is because headlines told him so, but that is not the case in reality. FACT IS... http://screamcentral.net/guns/internationalmassmurders.pdf

Okay enough facts... lets go back to being lied to an manipulated, it's far easier than doing our own research.
