Cheaper bump fire stock alternative ?

[Jed Dawn]

Edited my post just to be clear:

I sure would like to be able to do 3 round bursts with ease and not pay a fortune for a gimmick. How does one begin to learn the skills to do so ?

Not enough mall ninjas in the market segment to justify the R&D?


I know. That didn't sound very nice. But you gotta bear in mind that a well practiced rifleman can accurately fire three round bursts from their poodle shooter just as fast as some . . . ninja, with some gimmick stock can, and put those three rounds where they need to go to boot.

Do a google search for bump band if you want a cheap way to bump fire if your into that, cost you like $6 and do the same thing as a slide fire, both are pointless but if it floats your boat here ya go.

Bump firing is about the dumbest thing I've ever seen anybody do with a firearm, solely reserved for mall ninjas and rambo wannabes.

[Jed Dawn]

for the record, i would not buy some over priced bump fire stock. but if there was a cheap mod i could do to my stock then I would like to have it for SHTF situations. My neighbor can empty a magazine in a few seconds with just his finger, no gimmicks. Just skills. I wanna learn how to do the 2 and 3 round bursts like he does but so far no luck.Im sure a foregrip would help some, he does it with no foregrip tho, AR or Ak, no problem for him. Then again he has alot more experience with rifles then i do. Im still learning the AR15, have always been a handgun guy and never saw any value in trying to bump fire a handgun

their is no real reason to buy that stupid bump stock or bump fire unless you wanna make noise..... if thats the case just download a gun app

[ecocks]

I cannot see any application for a bump-fire option being needed in ANY scenario of my life.

like I said, im not tryin to just empty mags for the hell of it. I wanna learn qwik 2 and 3 round bursts. Of course learning to do it the right way instead of buying some gimmick would be nice. So where would i begin to try and learn how to do this ? Is this a matter of bouncing my finger off the trigger guard or just using recoil? please explain. I gotta start somewhere.

Jed please do not see my comments above as trying to find fault in you.

But it would be really great if you could understand that your money will be far better spent learning rifle skills rather than buying a crutch to make up for them . . . . that in reality never will.

What I mean by that, is this:

You can never EVER miss fast enough to win a gunfight.

A .22 to the head will kill you deader than a .44 to the foot.

Shot placement trumps volume of fire every time.

And a bunch of other inconvenient but absolutely true sayings . . .

How old are you?

Maybe you need to invest that money and time into some education instead. I mean I am not the best with grammar or spelling, but damn.

I understand and don't take offense. I knew I would get more negative comments then positive and that's fine. I want to aquire the skills I need incase I ever have to rely on my rifle to defend my life, family or property. And I think learning 3 round bursts and controlling them would be a nice skill to have. i just don't know where to begin. My neighbor does it by bouncing his finger off the guard very fast and it's dead acurate, he never missed the target once. I know it takes time but i wanna learn too. Maybe the title of my thread should have been about learning to fire 2 and 3 round bursts with control and accuracy ? ah well

Start with one. if you get good enough with that, you won't need #2 and #3.

If you are using a round that will not do the job with one, upgrade. The only reason the Military uses a double tap is because we don't have the option to upgrade. We have what we were issued.

With that said, I got the Mall Ninja Wannabe out of my system with the 50 Cal on the qual range . . . and again on test fire on an Afghani mountain-not quite a whole can. Ma Duce worked great, and you can really get the rock going from the top of an MRAP. Makes bump firing an M-forgery sound - sound - well, like a real Mall Ninja.

[ben4345]

Get that mall ninja out of you. You will get more respect from us.
Bump firing will make you a target for sure, learn to fire accurately under some stress. Then learn to double tap.

[anchorbanger]

I mean no disrespect, seriously, but other than for "fun" or in the very, very rare chance you may need to apply suppressing fire to effect and escape from a bad situation I see no realistic use for bumping.

Granted it could be an option, (all be it a pretty desperate one in my opinion).

I'd wager a skilled Rifleman, with a scoped bolt action .22 Hornet could do a more effective engagement to an adversary than a couple of guys bump firing AR's in the woods.

It's about laying low, engaging when no other option is possible and keeping our eyes open and staying alive. One of the main philosophies most of us share here isn't to go guns blazing but to ensure the survival of ourselves, our families and forecast possible events and deal with them in occordance to how they effect us.

I dont pretend to have alot of experience with rifles or any military weapons for that matter. So the term mall ninja has nothing to do with me. I would never spend money on a gimmick. I dont own any tacticool lights or doo dads. just a good ole Remington 870 express for home protection, 10/22 and now an xd9 that i carry for work and an AR15 which I have yet to fire. I do think a laser is good intimidation when kicking in doors but thats about it. I'm interested in having only what I need which includes training and skills. i have owned handguns since I was 21, Im 35 now. Never got to fire them much till i moved out to the country and bought some land. now I can do what I want and intend to build a better range then what I have and learn how to use what I have in different situations. But back on topic, i think it would be nice to develop a set of skills to include 2 and 3 **** bursts, why is that so "mall ninjaesque"

[Carne Frio]

You could use a .308 and not have to shoot 3 times to have a good result.
