I have no use for one, but I don't think it should be banned.

Funny how the media ignores the possibility that a truck run into the crowd could have killed many more, so that means he chose a less efficient killing machine (guns).

Sadly, we may be lucky if that's all that gets banned.

I voted NO btw.

Exactly! This just may be the golden opportunity the gun grabbers have been waiting for. While I do not see them getting to outlaw guns, I fully expect a hard run at an assault weapons ban and I would not put it past the GOP elite and Trump to back it.

The wife and I are choosing to hang on to what we have instead of buying, selling or trading for awhile. I am not going to stockpile ammo because I think we have enough for our real needs.

Unless there is a zombie attack in which case we are screwed. :D

I had a chance to buy one years ago and I just saw it as an over-priced novelty item. That's the same way I view the cheap plastic high-capacity drums. I am against the ban on principle but I bypassed buying one when I learned they existed so I guess I just figure so few of us own them, that it will be a small price to pay in trade for this shooting. If it gets the liberals off our backs then so be it...but on principle I am against it.

I believe the 2nd amendment was meant for the minuteman to be able to own whatever an infantryman could normally carry. At the very least "citizen armories" like they have in Switzerland would be good...limit your homes to semi-auto but have strategic armories with key holders stationed around the country...these would contain more advanced weapons...the national guard is supposed to fit this bill but if the feds have ANY control over them then it invalidates that solution and the civilian armories would be necessary (if you believe in the 2nd amendment's true purpose).

Anyway, they are going to ban the bump stocks, but it is a small price to pay for all the public outrage, I just hope not a slippery slope...the guy used high-dollar, hi-cap mags and not the drums so I hope they don't move the focus beyond the bump stocks and look at those.
