The effort came to an end when the NRA and most responsible gun owners said, "go ahead and ban it."
That took all of the fun out of it.

It seems that there are at least two bills in the senate to outlaw the bump stock. As said earlier they will most likely never see the light of day. Hillary proved that going after guns is a non winner.
In my view, if we can't stop it, we should press for a TRUE compromise, where the other side has to give up something, too (not just our side)
Very trueThe comments here kill me. "I guess i need to put back parts for a build they'll try to ban"
REALLY?
What you SHOULD be doing in a pre-emptive move is getting the word out and trying to get bad lawmakers VOTED OUT next year. Instead of buying parts, start petitions and meetings. Donate to Gun Owners of America. Write letters.
Put your efforts where they NEED to be instead of cringing down and getting ready to be told what they will let you have of your own rights.
Ready for the hate, (not that I give a damn about it).
I never thought of that. Thank you...The comments here kill me. "I guess i need to put back parts for a build they'll try to ban"

Or if gun enthusiasts want to visit gun shows, then fine, but purchases of regulated weapons would have to be delivered to designated sites, such as shooting ranges or hunting depots.
I just saw on Fox News that MA has banned them. I’m not surprised. Well maybe surprised that they were legal before there as nothing is legal in the People’s Republic of Massachusetts
Congress, unfortunately, DID empower them to make decisions and propose regulations that have the power of law. ATF, EPA, DOT, on and on, the Agencies can and do come up with interpretation to meet new circumstances where technology may have come up with a need for regulation and the Agency then proposes a change."...current laws..." Those same laws do not say, "Once an MG, Always an MG." either. The ATF, being unelected civil servants, shouldn't be making any kind of decision or regulations that make law.
Actually MA has signed into law a narrow ban on bump stocks and trigger cranks only but the penalties when getting caught with one are "severe" according to the AP article I read.
