Thumbhole stocks count as an "evil feature"?

[crookedteeth]

Because it is somewhat like a pistol grip which, as we all know, turns a hunting gun into a instrument of mass murder.

No. Slow your role.

I believe they do count in New York, and would have counted under the AWB passed by the US House this year:
“(49) The term ‘pistol grip’ means a grip, a thumbhole stock or Thordsen-type grip or stock, or any other characteristic that can function as a grip."

2. a grip, such as a pistol grip, a thumbhole stock, or other stock, the use of which would allow an individual to grip the weapon, resulting in any finger on the trigger hand in addition to the trigger finger being directly below any portion of the action of the weapon when firing;
This was from a 2013 CT gun law summary.

Guess I'm going to turn in all the thumb hole stocks i don't own

 

[alpineboard]

This means Any Anschutz, Feinwerkbau, Single shot , bolt action , no magazine, Olympic competition equipment is a prohibited item....?

I wonder if Maura has a thumbhole.

I believe that it's another "feature", where sufficient quantity of features makes it an "assault weapon". I do remember wondering about my 10/22, semi-automatic with a thumbhole stock, but I gave up giving a damn.

Why?

Why would a single shot be prohibited even if it had a pistol grip?

What is your reasoning behind this? Do you think a pistol grip makes a rifle an automatic prohibited item?

Why would "equipment" have a pistol grip? ... is this equipment or a damn gun you are talking about?

How come cops don't have to use this stupid shit?

And when did BPD start outfitting suppressors?

A thumbhole stock would slow some of us down. A MAK-90 with a thumbhole is clearly an added handicap for preferred-lefty shooters such as myself and is a microaggression against lefties everywhere. Thumbhole stocks are literally violence.

That’s gayer than stirring your Shirley temple with your buddy’s dong.

There are women on this forum, guys.

Have a little class…c’mon, it’s Christmas.

For thread relevance, I’ve always thought thumbhole stocks were gayer than AIDS.

…then I shot with one. They’re actually REALLY comfortable to shoot with on a precision platform. Pretty sure I’ll never have one on anything I might grab in a self defense scenario, but never say never I guess.

Right now there's somebody near a christmas tree getting kissed by the balls.

When I lived in Mass, I had an Arsenal SLR-95, which was legal to buy during the Clinton/Brady AWB of 94' because it had the stupid looking thumbhole stock. Now the very same stock is not legal because it has the thumbhole ???



BTW, I sold it before I moved to NH in 2014 so some lucky person in Mass could have the opportunity to own one after the Mass ban of 98'.
Then after moving up here, I replaced it with a sidefolder AK.

When HR decided it was less expensive than paying lifetime disability payments to cops for hearing loss.

God forbid the average citizen be afforded similar preventive measures.

f*** Boston PD, f*** Massachusetts legislature.

It does not appear that Massachusetts has equated a thumbhole with a pistol grip yet, but other states have. The only reason I can think of for thumbhole stocks was to work around the AWB, so naturally the "scary looking gun" crowd want updated laws to close what they perceive as a loophole.
