Response I received from Delegate Wendell Beitzel - 1A
Disgraceful - I will be crafting a reply once my BP lowers. Not protected under the 2A my Ass.
Mr. Folk,
I appreciate you reaching out to the office of Delegate Beitzel regarding HB 888. Below is a response prepared by Delegate Beitzel
"Automatic firearms manufactured after May 19th 1986 are illegal for private citizens to possess. A bump stock enables weapons to fire at nearly the rate of automatic weapons without technically converting it to a fully automatic weapon. I have been hunting ever since I was old enough to carry a gun. I served in the Army during the Vietnam War. Until this horrific insane shooting in Las Vegas I never heard of a Bump Stock. The bump stock essentially makes certain type of firearms almost the same as an automatic weapon. Automatic weapons are already illegal for ordinary citizens to possess. Bump stocks are accessories not firearms. They are not a 2nd amendment right to own. The bill has a provision that allows someone who currently owns one to apply to the federal authorities to register to possess, therefore I supported the bump stock ban".
Thank you again for bringing your concern to his attention.
Best,
Chris Lokey
