I still think it's pissing in the wind.
The Las Vegas shooter does not seem typical, and I still think the very fact that he had numerous loaded long range rifles was the issue. Not that he had a stock that increased the rate of fire.
It's mental that you can so easily carry a large number of what are effectively military grade weapons (albeit a single functional downgrade) into a city centre hotel.

See the firing rate differences in that same article. The shootings using a bump stock have a fire rate disturbingly close to automatic fire, far exceeding semi automatic fire. This makes a huge difference in terms of outcome, when terrorists like the Las Vegas shooter kept multiple weapons on hand in order to avoid spending mere seconds reloading.
