Gun-control groups are asking the Supreme Court to take up a case over the banning of bump stocks and give the federal government a green light to prohibit their use and sale.
The groups argue Congress banned machine guns in 1934 with the National Firearms Act, and bump stocks — when attached to a firearm — make nearly any gun a machine gun.
“When a rifle is outfitted with a bump stock, the shooter need only pull the trigger once, and the gun will fire continuously so long as the shooter keeps his trigger finger stationary and applies forward pressure to the barrel.” The ATF’s 2018 rule cited Congress’ law restricting machine gun ownership on models manufactured after 1986.
Lower courts had ruled for the government but the full 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reheard the case and decided due to ambiguity, bump stocks shouldn’t be considered machine guns. The decision effectively made the ATF rule unlawful.
