Are forced-reset triggers illegal machine guns?

It will be interesting to see how this is interpreted by the courts. It is humanly impossible to pull the trigger as fast as that gun shoots.

You can really see how that would come in useful, and clearly it's covered by the Constitution.

The courts might want to read the NFA...
The National Firearms Act defines "machinegun" as any weapon which shoots, is designed to shoot, or can be readily restored to shoot, automatically, by a single function of the trigger.
That has always meant a single pull of the trigger.

Obviously the intent of the law was to prevent this sort of operation.
Again I’m left wondering what the point of being able to do this is.

@Jolly I don't see how someone could claim that a human is pulling the trigger 30 times in a second. If my understanding is correct with these devices, the human is only pulling the trigger one time.

Do some research on forced reset vs. triggers with an auto sear.

I would be interested to hear your opinion. Do you think that the above qualifies as a machine gun?
From my understanding, the National Firearms Act "bars the public from owning machine guns, which are defined as firearms capable of firing more than one shot, without manual reloading, by a single pull of a trigger, or “any part” that converts a weapon into a machine gun."
