President Joe Biden's administration on Friday asked the U.S. Supreme Court to hear its appeal of a lower court ruling against a federal ban on 'bump stock' devices that enable semiautomatic weapons to fire like machine guns.

Bump stocks use a semiautomatic's recoil to allow it to slide back and forth while "bumping" the shooter's trigger finger, resulting in rapid fire.

In its 2019 rule, ATF reversed a previous conclusion and classified bump stocks as machine guns, defined under a 1934 law called the National Firearms Act as weapons that can "automatically" fire more than one shot "by a single function of the trigger." Federal law prohibits the sale or possession of machine guns, punishable by up to 10 years in prison.

Is it me is does the wording of this sentence make it sound like Biden is pro-Bump Stock? That doesn't even use half the characters Twitter allows ... no better way to express that?

It a Mental Problem NOT a gun problem. Gay & transgender have it bad

Bump are only made for killing people. Ask Alan Dean country star. Bump stock are no good for hunting or target shooting.

All these shootings and this is what we get from our elected officials whom have decades of experience. It’s time to vote them all out and vote in all new younger politicians.

No.

Dude bump stocks were used in the revolutionary war…what do you NOT get about “WILL NOT WEAR FRINGE EVEN AFTER LABOR DAY?”

Thank you, hope the appeal is successful and we keep the bumps out of our streets

Ok, sorry military you are out of luck in the future…

Such a waste of time and money by the Biden administration

Gun freedom in the usa has been increasing for decades. Not the other way around. The idea biden is going to ban any guns is funny at best.

Unfortunately, the occasional school shooting isnt anywhere near as bad as what would happen if the US tried to take away their guns.
