Mr. White, thank you for posting this.
It is not just abut the "bump stock", which to me is a cheap thrill device so one can see "kind of" what "full auto" is "kind of" like. I had a very long talk with a friend who is recently retired from the military and he is Special Forces. While overseas he saw a lot of combat in urban environments. It really gave me a different look at Vegas.

You really do not need a device to bump your stock into a perceived full auto configuration. My son was doing it way before this device was available to the public and yes, there are enough parts out there that if configured correctly, will make an AR/AK full auto and YES that is illegal.

Interest in bump stocks surged in the wake of the Vegas shooting on Sunday, October 1, but it almost as quickly faded. By October 14 -- less than two weeks after the shooting -- the search interest in bump stocks was back to pre-shooting levels. Source CNN

"This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Automatic Gunfire Prevention Act’’.
"a trigger crank, a bump-fire device, or any part, combination of parts, component, device, attachment, or accessory that is designed or functions to accelerate the rate of fire of a semiautomatic rifle but not convert the semiautomatic rifle into a machine gun".

So what if you have polished your trigger and have a really fast finger?
