I.E. - Any feature that increases the rate of fire/cyclic rate of a semi automatic firearm shall be included in this ban.
Binary triggers, rotary triggers, your freakin' finger if you have skill.
Who decides what "Rate of Fire" or "Cyclic Rate" actually is? Does some desk jockey that has never fired a gun, decide that the cyclic rate of a firearm shall not exceed 1 round fired every 2 seconds, because that is what a bolt action, pump action, lever action, break action, muzzle loader averages out to when they watch TV and you tube of what they feel is non offensive or excessively violent?
Will this then turn into a blanket "All semi automatic firearms shall be manufactured to not exceed the established cyclic rate"

Man, that was fast. I think you are 100% correct. Much like the 'Cop Killer' bullet and 'Sniper Rifle' rantings of the left in an attempt to ban all bullets and all rifles, this one will be taken by the left as a means to regulate how fast a firearm can shoot. And thus a complete ban on all modern firearms. I have seen bolt gunners shoot their bolt guns as fast as any guy shooting a semi-auto (in competition where scores count). Also guys who are extremely fast and precise with revolvers. So I wouldn't think owning a bolt gun or revolver would be a safe bet. The intent of the left is and always has been to disarm their opponents.
