This is a horrendous piece of legislation. Law is all about precedent. So now we have a precedent that come October 1st an accessory that was lawfully purchased and sales tax paid will be a felony to posses. This is a slippery slope that will end in every firearm being illegal.
A worse law would be hard to conjure up.
My opinion is bump stocks are pointless and useless anyway. There is no purpose to owning one to begin with so it's not a big deal.
This is exactly what they want. This is the old nose of the camel defined. You also completely miss the precedent being set here. An item was purchased LEGALLY and with the stroke of a pen and the passing of a date it will become a felony to posses what was once legal.
They have band many other accessories for guns before and it didn't make all firearms illegal so I highly doubt it will be any different this time.
What prior accessories would that be? And what other times did something that was legal made illegal with no grandfather clause?
The only reason he signed this bill into law is for political purpose. He is going to run for the Senate when his term is up for governor.
