They were given the power by Congress and their regulations have the force of law. Do you think yhe bump stock regulation was ever brought up in Congress? It was a new definition invented out of thin air by the ATF at the request of the president. No one ever voted on it. No one ever gets to vote on IRS regulations either, but you can go to jail of pay a hefty fine if you break one. Bump stocks are not firearms but the ATF decided they were machine guns all by themselves whether they were attached to a firearm or not. The federal government can do virtually anything they want and until they are taken to federal court and beaten, they will continue to get away with anything.</p></blockquote><p></p>
