President Trump on Tuesday said that he wants to ban so-called bump stocks — devices that can turn ordinary rifles into weapons that fire like machine guns, such as those used in the mass killing in Las Vegas.

“After the deadly shooting in Las Vegas, I directed the attorney general to clarify whether certain bump stock devices like the one used in Las Vegas are illegal under current law,” Trump said, referring to Jeff Sessions.

“Just a few moments ago, I signed a memorandum directing the attorney general to propose regulations to ban all devices that turn legal weapons into machine guns,” Trump continued at the White House.

“I expect that these critical regulations will be finalized very soon.”

Stephen Paddock, 64, of Nevada fired more than 1,100 rounds from a hotel room at a crowd of concert-goers at the Route 91 Harvest music festival on the Las Vegas Strip, killing 58 people and leaving another 851 wounded or injured in the panic.

Paddock used bump stocks to boost the firepower of his arsenal of weapons.
