Seems like kind of a really cheap and blatant way to circumvent class 3 licensing requirements. For 15 bucks you can have a fully auto AR. I was surprised they were ever legal to begin with. Question is what's going to happen to all the people who already have them? Are they now felons with the stroke of a pen?

Any ban is bad and unconstitutional really. Is it just bump stock or "any device use to increase the 'normal' rate of fire"? If it's the later, they could theoretically ban any trigger mods or worst semi-automatics weapons.
Trump on Tuesday said that he is recommending that all devices that "turn weapons into machine guns" be banned.
Support for universal background checks is itself almost universal, 97 - 2 percent, including 97 - 3 percent among gun owners.
Support for gun control on other questions is at its highest level since the Quinnipiac University Poll began focusing on this issue in the wake of the Sandy Hook massacre:
67 - 29 percent for a nationwide ban on the sale of assault weapons;
83 - 14 percent for a mandatory waiting period for all gun purchases.
It is too easy to buy a gun in the U.S. today, American voters say 67 - 3 percent.
If more people carried guns, the U.S. would be less safe, voters say 59 - 33 percent.
Congress needs to do more to reduce gun violence, voters say 75 - 17 percent.
