Amazing Bump Fire technique

[5150-417]

Learn to bump fire with a rubberband. I've already tried this on my ar-15 after a few tries you get the hang of it, this guy is a genius. It waste ammo fast but it makes you feel like Rambo.

Since the ATF ruled that a shoestring attached to an M1 Garand trigger is creating an illegal full auto weapon, attaching a rubber band to an AR15 trigger ranks this use of a rubber band in the same category.

Have fun and be nice to Bubba. I hear those cells are pretty cramped.

I'm sure i won't get caught in Mojave. But thanks for letting me know that i thought it was legal, what if you know how to bump from the shoulder is that legal?

One could concievably use the rifle's sling, in stead of the belt loop trick, to pull on with the thumb. Does this make any rifle w/ sling an illegal MG?
12280 violations, like a switchblade or butterfly knife, Even a regular thumbstud knife can be construed as a 12280 violation IF the owner/user shows proficiency with the knife, and can open the blade with a single motion. You can take, say, your CRKT M16-14LE and "centrifuge" the blade out- you have in effect created a switchblade.

you dont even need a rubber band to bump fire

[thedrickel]

Well . . .



So they clarified their position a little, the string is not a machinegun until you attach it to a semi-auto rifle. Still, don't do it.

In California, I believe we are limited to one round ever second.

Just on most firing ranges, but those are their rules, it is not the law.

A string, purposely looped and designed to perform the evil deed, is a "manufactured" componant. ATF obviously agrees.

But a rubber band...completely un-altered in its original configuration...is still a rubber band. No purpose made loops or length. It is the same as using a belt loop.

Eh...I'm still trying to figure out how a string attached to the cocking handle will make a gun repeat fire.

I did the barrel shortening job for that guy when he got his approved form 1 back.

He fires 1 shot for 1 pull of the trigger as opposed to more than one for every pull of the trigger. Therefore I don't see how it can be a machine gun. All the rubber band does it reset the trigger quicker, it doesn't do anything to make it fire differently.

I'm with you and everyone else who says this isn't a machine gun. Unlike the shoestring, which somehow allowed one pull to fire more than one shot, this still requires one finger pull for each shot.

[Josh3239]

The ATF calls it a machine gun because the weapon continued firing while the finger was pulled - just like a machine gun. The difference between this and the rubber band is if you continue to pull the trigger with a rubber band you will get the same results as any semi auto, which is one shot. This is simply a simpler way of bumpfiring from the shoulder.

Read this and make your own decision.

Unlike the shoestring which acts like an auto sear, the rubber band is acting like a strong trigger return spring.

As long as your finger actually presses the trigger each time the rubber band resets it, you should be OK.

With the shoestring, you only pull once, but the reciprocating op rod actually pulls the trigger which is why it is illegal.
