How bump stocks make semiautomatic guns more deadly

This is such a misleading video.

I sent my bumpstock to benchmade. They took care of it for me.

it IS NOT illegal to own fully automatic firearms in the united states. as long as you pay the tax stamp and comply with all provisions of the 1934 nfa you can own any fully automatic firearm you can afford. the only thing the 1986 law did was ban the manufacture of new fully automatic firearms for the general public.

very few fully automatic firearms have a rate of 840rpms. and if you do actually fire that many rounds in a minute youll likely melt your barrel. most are in the 200-600 rpms range.

"semiautomatics fire much more quickly than the kinds of firearms that have been around for most american history". bullshit. pepper boxes, volly guns, puckles, kalthoff repeaters, cookson volitional repeaters, belton flintlocks, jennings rifles, and girandoni air rifles, have been around nearly or longer than the usa has. and semiautomatics in the modern sense have been around for 134 years of the 243 years the usa has existed, so wrong again.

and how does reducing the 6 seconds it would take a trained user to reload 3 10 round magazines to 2 seconds make a semiautomatic significantly more dangerous? and why 10 rounds specifically?

a bump stock does not make a semiautomatic rifle "more deadly". neither does it modify in any way the internal functioning of a rifle. all it does is assist the shoot in more quickly reciprocating the firearm. a practiced shooter can do this with a belt loop or even just their finger. it also MASSIVELY degrades accuracy as the entire firearm is in motion making impossibly to aim accurately. the truth is, the las vegas shooter using a bump stock very possibly SAVED LIVES, over the shooter engaging in rapid, aimed shots at specific targets.

Half the “massacres” mentioned had the same actors. Nice try though.

Like the libart media understands how guns work >-> and I don't see how bumpstocks are the problem.

Vox: catering to pansies every where.
You know America is upside down when people want gay marriage to be legal but citizens want certain guns to be illegal.
You had a drug war but you can't keep those out of schools or even prisons; but you want a war on guns.
When you ban sales, you only take them from law abiding citizens. The criminals get to keep them undetected.
Here's a tip you should listen to: evil people kill. If you take away our guns, evil people will still find a way to kill you. People like:
The Boston bomber.
The Oklahoma City bomber.
The guy who used a truck to run people over on a sidewalk in New York.
Or even the kid who went on a stabbing rampage that injured around twenty people.
I can literally throw knives faster with accuracy than some of my friends can fire a semi automatic firearm.
Seriously Vox….get off the Democratic fanatic bandwagon.

1:00
Why did they show a feeding clip when talking about high capacity?
Even skilled people can't pull off fast reloading with those fiddly pieces of metal.

this doesnt make it more dangerous, it isnt as accurate

I'm tired of this bullshit; blaming the gun and not the mentally disturbed person pulling the trigger!!!!!

PROPAGANDA BULLSHIT!!!!!

when using a bumpstock it is very hard to aim so you can't shoot at a target accurately. if you just shoot one bullet at a time you can kill more people because you can aim better

Vox you need to credit Jon Patton's footage.

There are a few factual errors in this video.

The fire rate of the weapons used in the Vegas shooting were consistently firing around 600 rounds per minute (rpm), with no jams or breaks in firing. This is not the characteristics of bump stocks, which are notoriously inefficient and prone to overheating or failure.

You know what gun does fire consistently at 600 rounds per minute? A belt-fed, fully-automatic Light Machine gun or Squad Support weapon, such as the M240 Bravo or M60. Show any soldier who's spent any time on the front lines in Iraq or Afghanistan the footage of the shots fired from Mandalay, and they'll recognize that those shots are not from an AR platform at all.

Notice how quickly Vegas disappeared from the media after people started asking questions. Notice how the only interview with a guard just so happened to be on Ellen's show– who just so happens to have her face plastered on slot machines all around the ground floor of Mandalay and MGM casinos across the strip.

You are being lied to and fed misinformation in an attempt to manipulate a noose around your own necks. Wake up– When the government knocks down your doors with tanks and drones, you'll have nothing to fight back with at this point. It doesn't matter if it's democrat or republican–they will come, and you will be defenseless.

Fanpage has reloaded your video

Oh god it hurts watching this

30 seconds in and the information presented is already factually incorrect. Anyone with enough money, a clean background, and patience to wait for clearance and to fill out the appropriate paperwork can legally own any full auto firearm made before 1986.

This video is pure misinformation cancer

the way she says illegal at 0:16 makes me cringe
almost like when somone says hey thats not safe…………………

at me skateboarding

@ ronald reagan AKs are sporting weapons 😉

Funny fort hood was stopped by an NRA representative with an ar-15

He describes the AK-47 as "a machinegun." This seems dubious at best. It's an assault rifle, but that's not the same as a machinegun.

you know you can just bump stock any semi automatic rifle without a bumpstock right?!

Wow this video was so informative and clear that I didn’t even understand what a bump stock is…
Great job
I loved your series about maps, borders, music
But now, you’re deteriorating in this anti trump propaganda

30 rounds ten seconds then 90 rounds in ten seconds and then it switches to 7 seconds because ….. reasons right?

“Single pull of the trigger” no you hold it down

if someone Wants a gun, they'll get it no matter how illegal they are.

So stupid they want to take our guns from us , wtf are we going to defend ourselves with when a criminal brakes in our home to murder us, we will be left with nothing to help ourselves , that criminal would just get a gun off the black market. Liberals are retarded 💯

I love my bump stock.

it not illegal to own automatic dumbass

Quit lying to Americans @vox

I love how the time of the video is the caliber of the ar 15

automatic guns aren't illegal they are just highly regulated, which can take months to get and costs several thousands dollars because they can't be manufactured or imported since 1986

So what if had automatic weapon before 1986 did you have to get rid of it or you got keep it?

1:23 shows how hard it is to control a gun when using a bumpstock. There’s a reason they’ve never been used in mass shooting before Las Vegas

LMAO and when you all try to encroach upon me im going to use the bumper on you lmao GL you guys cant even figure out what bathrooms to use lol GL
