No Rack, I have no reason to be ashamed for alerting our forum members. I don't support it, but that is what the news (if you care to call them that) is reporting and that is what I got from my sources. I think you jumped before looking on this one.

The gun control freaks can ban things all they want. Such unenforceable laws will accomplish nothing, and freedom loving Americans will simply ignore them anway.

CNN report on this. Also has video of Trunp speaking about it from today
https://www.cnn.com/2018/02/20/politics/donald-trump-bump-stocks/index.html
If you don’t want to give them clicks, his quote is:
“Just a few moments ago I signed a memo directing the attorney general to propose regulations that ban all devices that turn legal weapons into machine guns," Trump said at a Medal of Valor event at the White House, addressing Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
"I expect these regulations to be finalized, Jeff, very soon," Trump said.

This might be the citation from MSN...just guessing...OP?
This is the headline:
President Trump directs Justice Department to ban gun modifications like bump stocks used in Las Vegas massacre
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/p...-stocks-used-in-las-vegas-massacre/ar-BBJnGfk
THEN it goes on to say:
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump says he's signed a memo directing the Justice Department to propose regulations to "ban all devices" like bump stocks used in last year's Las Vegas massacre.

A lack of grandfathering for existing bump stocks and folks won't want to be caught outside or on a range with one.
They could make possession legal and use illegal. Cuzz the government can't legally take your stuff.
Still to soon to know where the Whitehouse and Sessions and the ATF are heading with this BS.

Agreed. Will really depend on what’s in the memo. His actual quote doesn’t necessarily mean what the media says it will do. But that depends on them understanding what a machine gun actually is and I don’t have high confidence in that

I don't plan on giving anything up without a fight. I'm not a "Coward", I'm not a "Cupcake" regardless of what a person may say about me.

A lot of Republicans are on board with this. Including some pretty prominent ones.
People who care about or own bump stocks are a minority of a minority. My guess is that this will happen. Question is, what do we get. Congressional Republicans are very deeply concerned about mid terms. Trump is already framing this as "Democrats did not care when they had the majority" What we may get is a chance to have a GOP majority in 2019. There are many SCOTUS retirements coming. Replacing Kennedy, Ginsburg, and some others is paramount. Gotta play the long game here. Also, I far prefer this to Annapolis action.

I don't understand attacking the OP. He is just reporting what EVERY major news outlet is. It is being reported that Trump is directing the justice department to reconsider the approval of bumpstocks. That not on the OP, that's on Trump.

This. Its being reported, even on Fox, that Trump directed Sessions to ban devices that make rifles machine guns.
I too think this is a done deal.

Do you think Sessions would disobey and ignore a memo from Trump on Bumpstocks? That wouldn't keep him around for very long.
