So-called “bump stocks” are no longer available at Cabela’s, one of the nation’s largest outdoor sporting goods stores, after news broke that the Las Vegas gunman possessed the devices as he carried out his attack and had also purchased a firearm from the sporting goods superstore.
Out of the box, a bump stock allows a semi-automatic rifle to fire bullets at an almost fully-automatic rate. A search of the Cabela’s website by the Washington Examiner found that they were available online as late as Monday night, 24 hours after Stephen Paddock killed 59 people and wounded more than 500. But they no longer came up in searches of the site as of Wednesday morning.
