Except that is not what happens. I refer you to the gif below. It's really no different than Jerry M. firing his revolver at the super speeds he is capable of. We are heading down a dangerous road where how fast you can fire your gun determines if your gun is a machinegun. Lighter trigger springs or shorter trigger reset helping you shoot your revolver super fast like Jerry does? Machinegun!
Yes. I agree.
Well, not about the finger part.
But this bumpstock paradigm shift signals that all sorts of other, let's say "mechanical" means of speeding up the trigger pulls could be considered "machine guns."
If only we knew who in government started this shift....
Dude - you brought up commonsense.ETA: And the courts should NOT think or be like "normal" people. Most "normal" people are not all that informed, rational, or objective. And most people don't have any commonsense either.
I say it cannot. Commonsense says it cannot.
The courts will look in all sorts of directions for a reasonable way to interpret the legislative phraseology. But, ultimately, if the agency's interpretation is "reasonable" in light of all those definitions then there's a good chance the ban will stick, in one form or another.
