I’d like to start by saying that this product is going to shock you like nothing you have ever seen. I don’t know what the future of it will be, and I don’t think that anyone does at this point. At present it comes with an ATF letter saying that it is a legal AR-15 accessory, and several thousand have been sold. The use of “simulated automatic fire” here are my words, not those of the manufacturer. There isn’t going to be any way to get around what this thing does and I think it is best to call it what it is.
The Slide Fire is a $369 replacement stock for your AR-15 that when used properly, simulates automatic fire. Since the invention of the semi-automatic rifle people have been learning to do what is called “bump firing” the gun. You hold the gun in a loose way and allow it to rock back and forth against the trigger finger, which simulates automatic fire. It is fun, but it burns a lot of ammo without any real ability to aim at anything.
The inventor of the Slide Fire, Jeremiah Cottle, a US Air Force veteran of three conflicts, took the bump fire concept and eliminated all of the variables that makes bump firing impractical. The result is a product that bump fires perfectly, is completely controllable, every time, with no special training. There are no permanent modifications to the gun and installation of the Slide Fire does not impair function of the rifle at all.
Although I like it, I would be careful about this SSAR-15. "Why" Have you ever heard of a item called the "Akins Accelerator" please research it. It was approved then they shut him down and went after his customers.
ReplyDeleteBelow is the link to the letter of approval from ATF on the SSAR-15.
Get the part about (assist a person whose hands have limited mobility) / I have heard the guy who got this letter approved has hands with limtted mobility I hope I am wrong about that.
I don't know if the BATFE is doing this just to have a reason to come and get you if you have a lot of guns registered and you are "not" a person whose hands have limited mobility. Please paste my links below if you have any concerns. Not trying to offend anyone just looking for the truth.

ReplyDeleteInteresting. Actually, all you need is a strong rubber band. I would prefer a three way selector offering single, three round bursts and full.
