ATF Director Just Admitted This About FRT's During Senate Hearing

This video analyzes a U.S. Senate hearing where Senator Jack Reed questioned ATF Director Robert Takeda regarding the definition of machine guns, specifically focusing on Force Reset Triggers (FRTs).

The ATF Director clarifies that the DOJ conceded in a settlement that FRTs are not machine guns, despite the Senator's attempts to equate rate of fire with automatic function. The video emphasizes that the legal definition of a machine gun hinges on firing more than one shot by a single function of the trigger, not the speed of firing.
