I was not attempting to be an "arrogant jerk", simply to correct a fallacy you posted. That fallacy being that a bump stock turns a gun into a "full auto".

I have simply been attempting to correct what I saw as a mistake in your post.

Set as semi auto, one trigger pull, one round. Set as full auto, one trigger pull, it will fire until released or until you run out of rounds.

I already conceded that you could make the argument it behaves LIKE a fully automatic, I was merely pointing out that - by definition - it is not a true fully automatic.

I'm not arguing with you that its rapid fire isn't
similar to a fully automatic, just that it doesn't fit the definition of one.

Little difference perhaps, but there
is a difference.

Functioning like a full auto doesn't make it a full auto. This is the only point I've been trying to convey through my posts. Your initial posts made the mistake of stating it was converted into an actual fully automatic weapon. I was correcting your mistake and pointing out that they could act similar, but they wouldn't actually become one.
Again, I never intended to come across as being an "arrogant jerk", I simply wanted to correct a mistake I saw. If I failed to convey that properly and offended you, I apologize for my lack of clarity.
