I'm surprised newspapers, television and Internet aren't imposed with the same B.S. fees and tax stamps to produce dangerous free ideas under the 1st amendmemt. I suppose if the 1st amendent were under attack there'd be millions signing up to compromise towards that goal ,as well.

I shouldn't be shocked at what I'm hearing and reading from this thread ut I have to say that I am. Now is not the time to have a public debate on the merits of the NRA. Like the organization or not they are the strongest lobby for all of us to be heard in Washington. They way the antis dig in is by reading the idiotic comments being made on forums like this. The thread didn't ask what your opinion was on the NRA is was simply stating a fact and to inform members. Idiots like James and FlyinFinn put their .02 and turn an informative post into a debate on the merits of the organization. Notice in my post I didn't mention one way or the other whether i support or don't??? Why this thread hasn't been deleted I don't know. Wake up people.

So, you are saying it still only operates with the same efficiency of a semi-auto? Then what's the point in a bump stock?

Full auto weapons are not illegal, you just need deep pockets. All the anti-NRA folks have them with the dues money they have saved.

I'll call the cadence.
HALF STEP, March! Yo left,yo left, right left.

The definition does mention efficiency. It is a matter of mechanicals. However, I'm sure the definition can be changed to include bump stocks or even how fast a human can pull the trigger. This re-definition is right in NRA wheelhouse.

So the same rate of fire but different then a auto? That sounds like semantics so if they say it has the same rate of fire as a auto would that make it a Class III option then?

I didn't come up with the definition. Someone did a long time before I was bornt. But, as I said, by all means re-define it in order to compromise on the back of a fellow gun owner.

I have no problems with bump stock/Sig brace and similar items being illegal.

Then you seem to be in the right place, Marty.

I was curious whether he supported 2A with time and/or money or if he was satisfied to constantly whine, complain and put down the organizations and people that do.

There are some companies who were pulling their NRA support and changing their minds. FedEx for one. The Lt Governor of Georgia said the state will pull some of Delta's tax breaks if they pull their discounts offered to members of the NRA.

I posted a link to that on page four.

Because I don't send dues to Club Compromise does not mean I am not working to support and defend the whole Constitution.
Martys comment is indicative of a lot, 'I don't mind them being run through the ring and sent to the chopping block, as long as I keep mine.' Sooner or later we'll all be in the position of the bump stock enthusiasts. From past experiences, when the time comes, i wouldn't hold out much hope for support.

I never said that but you have at 'interpreting' my words and then putting your 'version' of them out as my comment..

Is my interpretation incorrect?

For me it is not about what I care to own vs do not care to own....the items I mentioned are manufactured to bypass existing laws. So making them illegal is not a problem for me.

I do not own a Glock but I would not favor making Glocks illegal just because I do not/would not own one.

So Flynn, where is the best place to put my money to help protect my rights if the NRA is a no go.

Ammunition.

That's not going to help if you have no guns, and I expected a better answer to a serious question.
