I included photos of many of the alternative "multi-burst trigger activators" (string, sticks, pipes, rubber bands, belt loops on pants, etc.) in my testimony to the legislature, as well as clearly stating that any semi-auto weapon can be "bump fired" without the use of any device at all. They ignored that testimony and passed the bill. I've written the same thing, over the course of several exchanges with the Hawaii County Office of Corporation Counsel asking if all these other "items" or "objects" are now illegal "devices" (well, actually, I've wrtten the police chief, but he or the department apparently don't answer such questions so they just send them over to the lawyers). And if they are NOT illegal devices, why not (since they can be used in the exact manner as described in the law to accomplish the same end)? They won't give me a straight answer. It's usually some snark/attempted humor (?) like "I've got a stick like that here in my office holding the window open". Our public servants on our payroll serving us.
I did find out that as of late October: 1. Not one single "multi-burst trigger activator'" had been turned in during the original 30 day "amnesty" period, 2. Not one single one has been turned in since then, and 3. not one single one has been confiscated by law enforcement.
Next month, on the six month anniversary of the law taking effect I will be filing UIPA requests with each county police department for all their "statistics" re how many devices have been turned in or confiscated.
