A Bump stock allows a semi-automatic weapon to fire like an automatic weapon. It increases the firing rate to around 400 to 800 rounds per minute. In other words, it transforms a semi-automatic weapon to a machine gun.

Since the Las Vegas mass shooting in October last year, there had been a significant support for legislation to ban bump stocks and similar devices.  Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California introduced a bill to ban these types of firearm accessories.
