I've been asleep at the wheel, but we did this the last two times with ATF "rules" changes. If you submit as many comments as possible to the ATF they legally have to respond to them before the rule can go through. Last time we sent 80,000 comments to them, and they have like one guy reviewing them all, so it stopped the M855 ammo ban, and also before that delayed the firearm "trust" loophole for buying NFA weapons by 1 full year.
Please follow this link and spread the word, make a profession polite comment, below I will give you some ideas to put in your letter. We only have till midnight tonight so SEND THEM A TONE OF COMMENTS.
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF). ACTION: Advance notice of proposed rulemaking; request for comments.
SUMMARY:
The Department of Justice anticipates issuing a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) that would interpret the statutory definition of “machinegun” in the National Firearms Act of 1934 and Gun Control Act of 1968 to clarify whether certain devices, commonly known as “bump fire” stocks, fall within that definition. Before doing so, the Department and ATF need to gather information and comments from the public and industry regarding the nature and scope of the market for these devices. DATES:
Written comments must be postmarked and electronic comments must be submitted on or before January 25, 2018.
Questions to pose, and things to mention in your submision.
-What will happen to all the current owners of "Bump Fire" stocks. - Does the ATF propose to confiscate bump fire stocks and how will they do this? -How will the ATF regulate people connecting a grip to a collapsible stock with a simple peice of metal and screws from Home Depot? What about 3D printed stocks? - Does the ATF propose to regulate a person using thier finger and sholder to simulate "bump fire." - If yes, at what rate of pulling the trigger is "too fast," and does that rate of fire of pulling the trigger turn the firearm into a "machine gun." - If pulling the trigger fast, makes the firearm a machine gun, is it from that point forward a machine gun under ____ in keeping with past ATF rulings? - If a firearm that has been bump fired with a persons finger and shoulder only, without modification to a firearm from the factory in any way, is now a machine gun from that point forward, how will the ATF determine if that firearms has been bump fired in the past and therefor a machine gun? - If a collapible stock becomes loose or loses the screw that holds the stock in place making the stock able to slide back and forth freely, and therefore able to be bump fired more easily, does that make that firearm a machine gun? - If yes, and a person repairs the stock adding the scew back to hold the stock in place, is that firearm converted back into just a "firearm" under

why is this in multiple posts and the most important thing, the url, isn't in the first but the second?
Alexander Scott
Because I'm a retard, thank you.
Benjamin Clark
Did /k/ sleep on this too? Freedoms die when you're not watching and when you're asleep you miss watching the longest.
Lucas Ward
I saw a few half assed postes about it but no coordinated effort,
They jewed us like they did in 1913 with the federal reserve act and posted the comment for public debate on Dec 25th 2017. So everyone was on holiday.
Lincoln Lopez
Post dox of zog officials pushing this publicly
Kevin Cook
why haven't you stopped it by force? I thought you weren't cucked like the yuropoors?
Ryan Johnson
No thank secret society FBI officials, pol is a board of peace.
Caleb Ramirez
Fuck peace kill all those that oppose you
t. the fucking FBI
Logan Gutierrez
fucking pathetic
Jose Turner
Bump. This needs spread far and wide.
Daniel Murphy
You realize it’s not going to be stopped, right? No one fucking cares anymore. None of the gun laws on the books are constitutional. The Founders wanted people to own battleships if they could afford them.
Easton Taylor
We care. That'll have to do, user.
Eli Long

I can see why people are worried this could be turned into a de facto ban on semi autos
John Lewis
Yes and the fact you can 3d print one, or use $35 in parts from Home Depot to make one.
Its really a pointless ban.
Mason Powell
Fortunately, you don't have to use your real name or address to add a comment.
Gabriel Gutierrez
check em
good to know
Jayden Wilson
Can't really fight then. The atf will ignore complaints as always. They're unconstitutional already and should all be publicly executed, they all live in liberal safe spaces oddly enough.

23. For what purposes are the bump stock devices used or advertised?
The primary use of bump fire devices by the shooting sports community is to assist in the resting of the firearm into ones shoulder with an intend to prevent bruising and to help with effectively griping a firearm in a way which reduces recoil during the firearms operation. Because of the slick design of many bump fire devices, many firearms enthusiasts save lots of money on chiropractic and other medical expenses regarding wear and tear on their glenohumeral joint or shoulder from repeatedly shooting large volumes of ammunition at the range in rapid succession. The back and forth motion of the firearm in the bump fire devices additionally prevents damage to the metacarpophalangeal joint, interphalangeal joints, and distal interphalangeal joints of the hands from reducing the number of times a person has extend and retract their phalanges or fingers to fire the firearm. This prevents many shooting sports related injuries across the country and reduces the burden on the government and private enterprise to meet the budgetary challenges of public healthcare. Bump fire devices also reduce the cost of repairing belt loops, and reduces the number of pants purchased by shooting enthusiasts, as before their invention this was the only legal way to fire a firearm in the this manner.
Bump fire devices are most often advertised as assisting in the users ability to fire the weapon easily and without much friction to their body. This fits with the manner in which many have seen the devices used in the field and on the range.

This guy gets it. If anyone REALLY wanted to do something spectacular, they would find a way, same goes for low-key operations. Fuckin ayy.
