Had some fun today with my AR w/ SSAR15 stock. This is still a semi auto rifle, but much more fun now. :mfclap:

I think this is better! :thefinger:
Yea, that would be better, but that is not legal for us common folk.
RCW 9.41.010 Terms Defined
"Machine gun" means any firearm known as a machine gun, mechanical rifle, submachine gun, or any other mechanism or instrument not requiring that the trigger be pressed for each shot and having a reservoir clip, disc, drum, belt, or other separable mechanical device for storing, carrying, or supplying ammunition which can be loaded into the firearm, mechanism, or instrument, and fired therefrom at the rate of five or more shots per second.
Since the instructions require that one hold the trigger down to make it operate, and multiple shots are discharged without requiring the trigger to be released, I don't think one has much defense against prosecution in WA State for using one of these.
Looks like fun and the manufacturer claims that it has the ATF's "Blessing".
Wonder how Washington State will view it considering that this is their definition of "Machine Gun"

Just like with other devices where the ATF has changed their mind, I see a big risk of this happening with this one too.
It's a possibility, but the concept is still the same. The trigger has to reset before being able to be pulled again to fire another shot. The internals themselves don't allow for the trigger to simply be held down once and only once.
By mechanical function, it still fits the letter of the law.
That of course doesn't mean the ATF won't change their mind at some point...
There is another provision of WA Law that could be troublesome. The "5 Shots per second. This would be equal to a cyclic rate of 300 rounds per minute.
What would the max cyclic rate with this device be? The cyclic rate doesn't take into consideration reload time, merely the rate at which the firearm is able to fire rounds, period.
It may not be "automatic" under ATF standards but the other provision within RCW 9.42.010 that defines machine guns could cause one grief.
