State moving quickly on plan to buy up banned bump stocks

OLYMPIA — State lawmakers are moving swiftly to fund a buyback program for bump stocks before a federal ban on the firearm attachment takes effect in March.

A bill awaiting action in the Senate would pay residents $150 for each bump stock surrendered to the Washington State Patrol.

The state agency knows how it will carry out the program — once the money is provided.

“We’re watching the bill and making all the plans to carry it out without spending any money,” said state patrol Capt. Monica Alexander. “If they provide us the money, we are going to get it done.”

Better put a limit on how many one person can turn in or someone is going to find sources to sell them at $100 and "turn them in" for $150.
