The parents of one of the 58 people slain in a 2017 Las Vegas mass shooting sued...

- The parents of one of the 58 people slain in a 2017 Las Vegas mass shooting sued the makers and sellers of the assault-style rifles used in the attack, saying they knew the weapons could be jury-rigged to work similarly to illegal machine guns.

The lawsuit filed by James and Ann-Marie Parsons, whose daughter Carrie was struck by one of the 1,049 shots fired in the 10-minute Oct. 1, 2017, barrage on 20,000 unsuspecting concertgoers, seeks unspecified damages from 16 gunmakers and gun dealers. Bump stocks use a gun’s recoil to bump its trigger, enabling a legal semi-automatic weapon to fire hundreds of rounds per minute as if it were a fully automatic machine gun. Machine guns are illegal in the United States.
