    CA Legal? "Bump stick stock"

    Had someone ask me if this "tool" was CA legal and I had to say Thoughts?

    It could be argued that is a multi-burst trigger activator. I would lean on the side of no.

      exactly. It's hard to tell from the video, but it looks like the stick (not his finger) is pulling the trigger. That makes me nervous...

        That bump stick looks like an NFA item to me...

          It appears the trigger is being actuated once for each time the gun is fired, so not an NFA item.

          It looks homemade to me.

              If they can bust you for using a shoestring, then they can get you for this as well...

                Yes, but didnt the shoestring result in multiple shots per trigger pull? I dont recall.


                It looks to be a safety hazard though, with the gun being even in less control than when 'bump firing'

                  Not so sure about that, the argument against the shoestring was that when attached to the firearm it acted as an auto-sear (when the bolt closed the string pulled the trigger). The stick-on-a-stock doesn't mechanically interface with the gun in the same manner, it just pulls the trigger as the gun recoils.

                      I'd lean on the side of no. But really, you can get the same effect with practice without the stick. The stick is just serving as a guide...

                        That was my first thought upon seeing the thread title, but the AA was a custom stock with a spring installed, and attached to the rifle.

                        I consider this to be much closer to the shoestring, than anything else... it's certainly nothing I'd post on Youtube.

                        Really, the answer is to just get really good at bump-firing and the stick won't be necessary.

                          anyone here remember the BMF Actuator? It acted like a 3 round burst AND (if you held it lightly ) it would allow you to bumpfire really easily.

                          it was declared illegal in CA prior to the Roberti-Roos fiasco.

                            That was an idea born on AR15.com years back. I remember the bumpfire videos posted back when the idea first came to be.
