    Do we have a breakdown of how many victims were shot vs how many were injured/killed in the stampedes?

    Those numbers might help before we start allowing emotions to soften our resolve on hardware?

    We give an inch, they'll take a mile. They are already lined up to do it. Easy to forget the TEN YEARS we went without modern sporting rifles...

    Im missing what difference it would make. I image that most of those dead are from gunshot wounds, and the head doctor said most of those injured were from gunshot wounds. So even if it was (from firearm injuries) 25 dead, 250 wounded, the difference is negligible. I mean what are you going to say "only x many were killed and wounded from the actual gun, the rest were from the panic."

    If he’s in hell, it’s probably impossible to talk to him. The strings between the cups would burn.

    Does CNN only hire liberal homosexuals to report their news? Not that there is anything wrong with that.

    Already heard on WOWO news that the usual suspects are lining up with their "gun control" legislation. Trump said that they would be talking about trying to do something on this....here we go again. You can bet that the laws will change on "attachments" to standard semi-auto rifles, that give them the ability to fire multiple shots with one pull of the trigger.

    With a bumpfire stock the trigger is being pulled for each individual shot. Bumpfire/slidefire doesn't make a rifle fire multiple shots with 1 pull of the trigger

    Yes, otherwise it would already be an NFA item.

    But, try to explain that to someone who dosent know the mechanics of it.

    Yes, I'm sure the people calling for more restrictions would completely change their minds if they only understood that the rate of fire they're so terrified of is achieved by a slightly different mechanism than the other one they never heard of.

    So what if we had a multipart solution -
    1) regulate all attachments that increase rate of fire to be like high rate of fire original equipment. Bump stocks and cranks would then be regulated like machine guns. This would address one of the factors in the Vegas shooting.
    2) pass nationwide reciprocity to address shootings like the congressional shooting.

    I think it will take specific changes to address specific situations. Not generalizations

    anyone got got any other ideas?
