What it does
This bill prohibits the manufacture, possession, shipment, transportation, or receipt of a multi-burst trigger activator. The bill defines a multi-burst trigger activator to mean a device designed or redesigned to be attached to a semi-automatic firearm that enables a firearm to discharge two or more shots in a burst by activating the device, or a manual or power-driven trigger activating device constructed or designed to increase the rate of fire of a semi-automatic firearm when attached. A multi-burst trigger activator includes firearm accessories, parts, and a combination of parts that significantly increase a semi-automatic firearm’s rate of fire beyond the standard rate of fire for a semi-automatic firearm.
