Challenge To Bump Stock ATF Ruling
BY Herschel Smith

David Codrea writing at Ammoland:
The stock I obtained, signed by inventor Bill Akins and still in its original packaging, was initially approved as “legal,” then was deemed “illegal,” subsequently returned for rework to remove the spring and once more deemed “legal.” Now it is supposedly illegal again and if I don’t obey the order to rid myself of my twice-confirmed “legal” property, I’ll be branded a felon and subject to life and freedom-destroying punishments. For the record, I have no intention of using it and don’t even own the type of rifle it is made for. I own it, among other reasons, because I consider it a piece of firearms history, because it pleases me to own it, because the gun-grabbers don’t want me to, and because it is my right.
Yes, to all of the above. But note that the ATF couldn’t possibly care less how much unjustified damage they do to life and property. It’s their bread and butter.
It’ll be interesting to see where this goes, perhaps to the Supreme Court.

You only need to look at the history of “Pre-81 Drop-In Auto Sears” and the so-called 1986 “Firearms Owner Protection Act” section 109 which amended the definition of “machine gun” (in a way which didn’t protect firearms owners).
