Default "Bump" firing

I had not heard of this until the other day, when I came across the concept while looking at YouTube videos of Thompson SMGs and semis. If you have not heard of it either, do a YouTube search. Probably dangerous, but, wow, what an effect!

How many members knew about it already?

Yes, I can imagine it didn't take long for somebody to discover this, probably the day after the first semi-auto was available..

...just celebrating another chip removed from the monolith made of things I don't know, don't understand, or never heard of!

That bump fire stock for the AR15 is an interesting concept, as it can be changed back easily, or just fired semi if desired. My only problem with it, besides price, is it is sort of ugly!! I do keep thinking about it though.
