BOSTON — Governor Charlie Baker said Thursday he'd back a proposed statewide ban on bump-fire stocks, the add-on equipment authorities claim that a Las Vegas gunman attached to his semiautomatic rifles in order to increase his firing rate.
"Look, that should be outlawed," Baker told reporters, referring to bump-fire stocks, after attending a ceremony inside the Massachusetts State House honoring law enforcement officers. "And if that were to pass tomorrow, we would sign it."
