Russian SKS BUMP FIRE . . .
- Thread starter GunBlast
- Start date
Former Prohibited Weapons Order, No. 9
1. Any electrical or mechanical device that is designed or adapted to operate the trigger mechanism of a semi-automatic firearm for the purpose of causing the firearm to discharge cartridges in rapid succession.
The combination of your finger or thumb with what ever retaining device you use.. Whether it be a belt loop or top of a pocket would then be a mechanical device. It's the exact same idea and ruling as a slide or bump fire stock
Definition of a mechanical device?
A machine is a tool that consists of one or more parts, and uses energy to achieve a particular goal. Machines are usually powered by mechanical, chemical, thermal, or electrical means, and are frequently motorized. Historically, a powered tool also required moving parts to classify as a machine; however, the advent of electronics technology has led to the development of powered tools without moving parts that are considered machines.[1]
A simple machine is a device that simply transforms the direction or magnitude of a force, but a large number of more complex machines exist. Examples include vehicles, electronic systems, molecular machines, computers, television, and radio.

A device?
noun
1. a thing made for a particular purpose; an invention or contrivance, especially a mechanical or electrical one.
2. a plan or scheme for effecting a purpose.
3. a crafty scheme; trick.
I don't think your finger meets the definition of a mechanical device.
Although, according to the BATF, a steel wool pad is a "silencer" and is subject to a $200 tax stamp.
Because it can be used as a part of a silencer, it qualifies.
They also consider a shoe string to be a prohibited 'device' because it is a machine gun.
You can use it to bump fire.
Up here though, semi is defined as one trigger pressure, one bullet.
The slide fire stock was ruled as legal in the us because it isn't complex enough to be considered 'mechanical'.
Hard to keep it all straight with all the contradictory paradoxes.

If you truly believe that you have no idea what your in for when you actually get to deal with someone who's not on your side.
As I said bump fire away.. It's not worth the risk to me at all to let 5 rounds fire from the hip at a simulated auto speed unaimed .. I prefer to shoulder my rifles and pull the trigger as fast as I can if I'm looking for a "machine gun smile"
Do not use your belt loop then...I do not, problem solved!!!
