[QUOTE="Winkfish, post: 1532239, member: 98068"] If you have not read the 150+ page document that was released it was interesting and here are a couple of the highlights: From page 24: 186,000 total comments. 119,264 comments in support of the ban and 66K comments opposed. Page 83: Binary triggers will not be classified as machine guns as part of this ruling. Current estimated number of devices in circulation is 280K to 520K Average estimated per unit cost of $300 approx. was used in financial analysis with an impact in excess of $100M. The department (ATF) makes several reference and supporting comments that this is being done in part as a public safety measure however the ATF is unable to provide any statistical data to support current or future usage against general public. The ATF has not provide the technical response to date on the firearms used in the Las Vegas shooting. Therefor no formal document states that machine gun or a bump-stock was utilized. It is assumed but not formalized. It will be interesting to see where this goes as many of the statements are around the guise of public safety. The question is what is next and will it be done through congress passing laws and changing the definition or an reclassification based on the opinions of no elected officials. [/QUOTE]
