CA DOJ finally says something about SlideFire stocks...

[bwiese]

While DOJ BoF will not give out opinions to folks querying legal status of guns, devices, and activities, their front woman did say SlideFire stocks were illegal devices:

http://news.yahoo.com/add-ons-let-se...201305718.html

Michelle Gregory, spokeswoman for the California Department of Justice, says
bump stocks would be considered illegal "multi-burst trigger activators" under
state law — although that interpretation has yet to be tested in court.

Given articles like the one quoted, and relevant drama, please rest assured these are an easy conviction given broad wording of law.

Do note SlideFire Solutions says, "Slide Fire has not been notified by any individual state that our products conflict with any state laws."

Big dummy, that's not the way things work.

I bring this up not only because they made the news, but because I think there's another round of noobs bringing these things in.

Note that these are separately covered in law (vs. part of AW 'characterictic features') - and possession of the device (just like Hellfire devices) is illegal.

Thanks for the input Bwiese! Now the constant question from some folks may be answered!

Yeah no more is this stock legal in Ca threads.

Not only are they illegal, but they are expensive and pointless.

Finally... at least they said SOMETHING.

I disagree with them that it's a 'multi-burst trigger activator'. But my opinion doesn't matter one bit. Just glad I don't own one.

Next they'll make bump-firing (without anything to assist) illegal too... I've seen some insane bump fire skills by friends back home. They had it down to a science. It was pretty impressive.

I've never been able to successfully bump fire without using my belt loop.

Michelle Gregory is probably one of those people that uses the phrase "assault clip."

Why do we let these idiots dictate anything again?

you can bump fire with a rubberband, poor mans machine gun, I saw an awesome youtube about it.
Hopefully they wont outlaw rubberbands.
However it does seem like a waste of money.

I can waste ammo
Just as fast without bump firing.

Shoelaces are machine guns according to the ATF.

I wonder if they came up with their legal opinion by first checking this site.

I think after Bweise's stand on 80% lowers (he was POSITIVE they were illegal) the scorecard reads.

BWeise 1 (pump fire stock) -1 (80% lowers) = 0

Sonny,

Adulthood requires some understanding of complexities and nuances etc. And reading is
fundamental.

My worries were pre-1/1/2007, before the advent of AB2728. I said that I felt there was some
judicial risk involved in these due to certain handwaving about Harrott vs growth of lists, etc.

Given the freezing of the lists when AB2728 that was no longer a concern.

I still do have significant concerns about cop (mis)behavior w/traffic stops and unmarked nonfactory
receivers - vs normal production-marked receivers. The idea that you're saving $50 or $120 or whatever
just doesn't resonate with me - work extra hours at Starbux or whatever you need to do to get thru the
day.

Next time you try to put words in my mouth please do it in front of my face.
