We've been talking about bump firing for a number of years

3. My personal opinion

is that bump stocks should be illegal. The purpose of the 1986 law was to prevent new automatic weapons from being brought into private ownership. Bump stocks circumvent that law, and should therefore be declared illegal.

I would also put high-capacity magazines on the chopping block. There is no earthly reason that requires the use of a 90-round (or larger) capacity magazine, and banning their use would not infringe on the second amendment. As a matter of fact, I would go even farther and base the magazine size on the original design, which would put it at either 20 or 30 rounds max. That seems like a good rule of thumb for most weapons, as a matter of fact.
