You can bump fire any gun without a bump stock or a trigger mechanism, on a lot of guns it’s stupid easy and you can do it without experience. It doesn’t turn it into a “fully automatic machine gun”. Someone with barely any firearm experience can take any pistol or rifle and be shown how to bump fire within like a minute. It has nothing to do with accessories, although things like those can make it a little easier.
I’m a big advocate for better gun control, but what you’re implying is just dishonest, even if unintentionally.
Posting that kind of stuff makes you sound like you have no idea what you’re talking about (the way you worded it just sounds cringey) which makes people less inclined to be influenced by what you say, and hurts support of gun regulation by convincing witnesses that everybody who likes gun control is misinformed.
Can’t bump a single action six shooter. Sorry pal.
“I don’t care about guns deaths, just the guns that scare me the most”.
Implying that a revolver isn’t used in crime to kill people is hilariously misinformed ignorance. More people every year are killed by revolvers, than a plastic semi auto rifle.

What are you on about? Care to put any other words in my mouth? There’s plenty of things you can say about me but literally nothing that you just said has any relevance to me at all. Thank you very much.
A lot of the comments written to him were hostile, he may of thought you were as well.
Then you’ll have no issue with banning bumpstocks then eh? And other mechanisms that move this from skill based to technology based?
No. Because the whole point of guns is to equalize people regardless of skill. Normal people can’t spend their lives training, terrorists can.
Look man, I just want less gun violence in this country. And my solution is to ban guns. If you have a better idea I’m all ears.
Fix society…and get to the root cause of why people are violent towards each other
These aren’t actual solutions. Taking aways all guns is a concrete step. We need concrete steps from the gun loving crowd.
Lol good luck with that, you anti-gun crowds really want to start a civil war that you wouldn’t survive in.
So yea, you have no ideas then? Cool. What a turd.

I literally posted how to solve the majority of our violence in this comment chain your in. I’ve also posted these things before…so yea I’ve got plenty of ideas and tons of research on the topics.
It’s pretty easy to get guns in my country yet there’s still not much gun violence. Similarly a lot of the states with the most lax gun laws in the US have the least gun violence.
“Everyone can kill people regardless of skill” seems much worse than 'only highly skilled people can". None of these shooters ever “spent their life training”.
Skill means people with resources and able-bodied. If you want to further centralize lethal power in the hands of those people that is your choice.
If only it were my choice.
