Bump stock ruling could trigger booming rapid-fire marketplace

If the Supreme Court rules that bump stocks aren’t machine guns later this summer, it could quickly open an unfettered marketplace of newer, more powerful rapid-fire devices.
The Trump administration, in a rare break from gun rights groups, quickly banned bump stocks after the 2017 mass shooting at a Las Vegas concert that was the deadliest in U.S. history. In the ensuing years, gun rights groups have challenged the underlying rationale that bump stocks are effectively machine guns, in a legal fight now before the Supreme Court.
Justices appeared divided on the issue during oral arguments in February, and are on the clock to hand down a ruling by June. How they ultimately define machine guns will have a sweeping impact not only on bumpstocks, but a whole class of similar rapid-fire devices effectively banned in the U.S.

Every time they talk about making something illegal, more people buy it. Then if they do make it illegal, they just create a huge black market for it.

The ban is basically a textbook definition of "arbitrary and capricious".

People should be able to own any kind of weapon, such as hand grenades, rocket launchers, tanks etc. They were allowed cannons during Washington and Jefferson's presidency.

NOTHING happens "automatically" with a bump stock. It is entirely reliant on a very specific use of multiple muscle groups with both hands to harness the recoil.

Yup, it's no more automatic than a belt loop, rubber band, shoelace, or the Third Law of Motion

If you want to ban something then take it to a congressional vote. The ATF cant arbitrarily let alone unilaterally change or interpret wording of law. Imagine the potential chaos if we just continue allowing enforcement agencies to be interpret current law, make law and then enforce it. You may not be a gun person but the powers you’re idly standing by or actively cheering on will one day come for you.

It's not about that. It's about banning something under a law that doesn't meet the statutory definition of said law. Bump stocks do not meet the statutory definition of a machine gun. Period.

Yes, as in equal and appropriate weaponry, acceptable amounts of ammunition, appropriately organized. Why would the founders ever have allowed the federal government to "regulate" the very people and weapons that were established as a check on the federal government? That would be like you having the authority to regulate the police, or the Taliban having the authority to regulate the US military, it would make absolutely no sense. The second amendment isn't about sport or hunting...

18th century context of that has absolutely nothing to do with government regulations and restrictions. Why would they say they are allow to regulate it then in the same text say "the right of the People to keep and bear Arms SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED" Infringed means to control or restrict. Shall not be controlled or restricted. So they contradict in the same text if you think that's what we'll regulated meant.
