Self proclaimed LE at the range yesterday and my bump stock.
BTW, the law goes into effect October 1. I know for sure he was checking to see if it was a FA. He only fiddled with the safety, never looked to see if it had the third pin. Really, I'm not certain he was a real LEO, probably a mall cop. He couldn't believe that they can be shot well with enough practice. I was printing better groups doing 3 to 5 shot bursts with it than he was with his AR shooting one at a time.
In my experience a lot of cops are terrible shots to begin with, wouldn't really trust one to handle my NFA rifle and actually know what the fuck hes doing. This is purely anecdotal though.
"The essential American soul is hard, isolate, stoic, and a killer. It has never yet melted."
I shot next to one at an indoor range, and he fired an entire box of .40 from 21' at a standard red center bullseye without touching paper once.
After he left, I pulled his target and got a refund on it!

Not cop-bashing, but...I doubt the average LEO would have any clue as to the "third pin".

Yeah, if not a gun guy (which most cops aren't), I doubt they would know about that. BUT, these guys were at the range, so they very well may be gun guys.Tenzing_Norgay wrote: ↑Mon Aug 13, 2018 4:55 pmNot cop-bashing, but...I doubt the average LEO would have any clue as to the "third pin".
