Illinois House rejects bump stock ban along rural-urban line

FILE – In this Oct. 24, 2017 file photo, Rep. Martin Moylan, D-Des Plaines, testifies at a House Judiciary Committee hearing on behalf of HB 4117, a bill to ban bump stock attachments for guns that he sponsors at the Capitol in Springfield, Ill. The Illinois House Thursday, Oct. 26, 2017 soundly rejected a ban on “bump stocks” of the type used in the Las Vegas massacre which speed up weapons firing. Democrats as well as Republicans complained Rep. Moylan’s bill was too broad. (Rich Saal/The State Journal-Register via AP File)
