Original Note:
The Supreme Court did not "effectively legalize machine guns" They ruled that the ATF exceeded its authority by classifying "bump stocks" as machineguns. A "bump stock" does not convert semiautomatic guns into fully automatic guns, as this article claims. https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23pdf/22-976_e29g.pdf
