    Do you mean "compensated" like the Australians were when "Big Government" came and took their semi-autos several years ago? That kind of "compensated"?? RIGHT!!

    actually, that cost their Gov't quite a bit. Some made enough off of selling their guns back to buy new homes.

    And, as far as the "bump-fire" stocks go, I seem to remember a trick where a shooter can tale a wooden dowel, 6-8 inches long and 1/2-3/8 in. diameter, put it through the trigger guard with the end pressing in to your hip, and pull the rifle forward with your other hand. It makes you hip rather sore fairly quickly and, shooting from the hip, there is no accuracy, but you put a fair amount of lead down range.

    I had heard that there was NO compensation, esp. for many of the older, more ornate collectibles, that the people were forced to surrender.
