SEE IT IN ACTION
Airing on the Discovery Channel Network™, one of the most popular shows on television, American Guns, picked up one of our Slide Fire™ Premium Stocks and put it to the test.
Bump-firing is not a new thing--but this stock design is. It ergonomically maximizes and controls your firearm's ability to safely bump-fire as fast as your trigger can be pulled. Used in short bursts, I can see this ability greatly leveling the field for LEO's facing criminal firepower. It can assist homeowners in defense of their families against multiple burglars and holds promise of greater security during periods of natural disasters and anarchy due to a collapsed economy or social unrest. Although I don't personally feel that rapid fire is a necessary option, it may be a desirable one in some cases. It's greatest value, however, may be in adding enjoyment to the activity for which most black rifles are used--recreational shooting.
Such recreational shooting may be equated to swimming. Swimming is a useful and fun recreational activity--but it also has the potential of one day saving yours or others lives. although strong swimming skills are required by our military's most versatile and elite special forces--and may similarly be abused by criminal elements to perform the odd-crime here or there--it just doesn't happen that often. Of course the potential exists to abuse the skill of swimming in the performance of nefarious activities (such as the bombing of the USS Cole while in a Yemen harbor)--this potential does not provide a reasonable basis for outlawing swimming.
Of course this swimming analogy sounds silly--because it is. But it is actually no more silly than labeling recreational shooting and firearms as undesirable or criminal. It is largely a matter of culture and accepted understanding.
I have a slide-fire ordered for one of my firearms; once I test it our thoroughly, I will review it here. Meanwhile, I have only heard interesting things about it, and am in no way endorsing it as a viable product.
