Under cover of darkness and using legislative parlor tricks, the Massachusetts legislature passed an extreme anti-gun bill during a late night session that was signed by the Acting Governor the next morning.

Slipped into the crevices of an appropriations bill was a ban on "any device that increases the rate of fire achievable with a weapon by using energy from the recoil to generate a reciprocating action that facilitates repeated activation of the trigger." 

The goal of the legislation was to ban bump stocks. However, the measure is so vague that a wide range of accessories could be banned including after market triggers and springs.

The bill was rammed through with very little debate and almost no opportunity for public input.
