The local ban, which takes effect immediately and bars anyone from manufacturing or buying the devices in Philadelphia, is almost certain to be challenged in court.

    The court rejected that the ATF could ban it, not that banning it was unconstitutional.

      It’s a stock for a rifle that reciprocates back and forth freely so you can use the recoil from firing the gun to bounce the trigger on your finger
