Under a new federal rule announced Tuesday by the Justice Department, bump stocks will be redefined as 'machine guns' and therefore outlawed under existing law.

This was an infringement on second amendment rights. Americans are less free.

Let’s also redefine abortion as murder.

This is so illegal everyone should be protesting! From this point on the government will rewrite the definition of anything to steal more of your property!

GrahamMotion Now, about those mega magazines. Get it done.

Glad the gun grabbers are preoccupied with their new learning of what a “bump stock” is. 🤷🏽‍♂️

One step forward guns NRA

Good start.

There you go!👍🏿😏

JJohnson2u 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Where is the outrage? Where is the NRA?

It does literally nothing.

About time!

Gee it only took a year after Las Vegas

PaSenateDems How many criminals will turn them in? Would they turn in their illegal guns? The ban is a joke.

Great Real Law,Great Real News !!!!!!

Fierarms Predate borh The Revolution And the Constitution ! Remember that

So whats that gonna solve you can 3d print them at home or many will be sold on black market

Shocker...the old bastards are doing their job?

I wonder how many criminals plan on turning them in

It's a good start.

I, as a NRA member think that's a good Idea.

Yay more laws for law-abiding citizens 🙄

Cute but this changes like, nothing. This is worse than a placebo; it’s like an ineffective vaccine. me if you need an explanation.

I wonder what all those people who invested in bump stocks are going to do now? They expected a manufacturing ban and not a reclassification as machine gun.

how will fox news spin this?

HOW does one load the bump stock with ammo for DANGER..asinine rules..REAL DANGER

It isn’t everything but at least it’s something...

Finally, some good news on bump stocks!

Trump thinks banning bump stocks is gun control. I guarantee you, he checked with the NRA prior to doing it!

I like how people like the idea that the government can unilaterally tell an individual that something is now banned and either take it away from them or force them to destroy it with no recompense for something legally bought and owned. Man if this was cell phones or books....

Who knows how many have been sold & to whom they were sold to? It’s going to be mighty difficult to gather them up if nobody knows who has them.

This is a stupid and dangerous decision.

Wow.. what the hell took so long

But wait..... Does that mean the guy in office is a “gun grabber”? Because that’s what would’ve been said if it was anyone else....

Baby steps but welcome indeed.

Wow wonderful but surprising.

oh, this is gonna get interesting! NRA losing its mind on potus in 3...2...1...

The laws should reflect what weapons can be, not what they can't be. The weapons industry spends millions trying to evade the definitions.

So how long did that take? October 1, 2017 to today. Just over 1 year. I think we can do this quicker by using the Congress instead of waiting for the treasonous RPP despot regime's 'Justice' department to do it.

Why couldn’t they just ban bump stocks Why did the need to be redefined?

Finally, Obama decides to take your guns! Oh. No. Wait.

Further proof that Trump is a big govt commie. Bump stocks do not work, and they weren't used in any shooting despite what they try to tell you. Anyone with a brain can listen and tell you by sound that the rate of fire in the recordings was actual automatics.

Baby steps but forward momentum none the less.

Ummm...that's is technically and literally incorrect. I care less that they want to outlaw bump stocks, and more that they are stating a pure untruth in the law in order to do it. Bump stock does not change one bullet fired per pull of the trigger. more

winning

Hmm something I said NRA

Good news: “the justice dept..” Bad news: “the trump admin..” Side note, this IS good news.

Prices just skyrocketed.....thanks assholes

This is clearly trumps first step in becoming a dictator. Not to mention trump is a racist by banning bump stocks.

This is turning out to be a good day.

Good. No place for something like this in the hands of citizens.

The disabled and elderly are being discriminated against.

Do not know much about stock market, but from what I gather, it may be reasonable.

I never imagined to see the day this administration did something that actually protects American lives.

AR-15 and the like next?

Just like that?! Look how easy that was.

Silly that the people making the rule have no idea how bump stocks work

FINALLY.

Good.

This would be good news if we had a legal head of DOJ. This now can be challenged based on Whitaker not being legal. 'm not kidding.

Bunkers are being constructed, as we speak. False walls in closets.....

Finally

melt every gun.

After how long? 58 deaths wasn’t enough.
