There are no legal workarounds to full auto, and none are being proposed.

What language would you propose that would ban "bump stocks" and not impact semi-auto weapons in general? Any such language would not prevent bump firing. Bump firing is a technique, not a gun part. Unless you ban belt loops and a myriad of other things you will not stop someone from being able to bump fire a weapon.

Re: Mass: Senate Unanimously bans bump stocks

It looks like the NRA finally woke up. Let's just hope that it isn't too late to stop this latest gun confiscation effort.
The National Rifle Association cautioned Linsky’s ban is sweeping in its context and cautions that federal regulators are already reviewing the devices, which may eliminate any need for a legislative fix.

“This broad language could be easily interpreted to ban match grade triggers, ergonomic enhancements, recoil reducing weights, muzzle brakes, and other modifications that countless law-abiding gun owners utilize in order to make their firearms more user-friendly and suitable for self-defense, competition, hunting, and even adapting to physical disability,” says an alert issued Wednesday by the group’s lobbying arm. “Many of these modifications simply make it easier to deliver accurate and controlled shots with less physical discomfort for the shooter without fundamentally changing the mechanics of how a firearm operates.”
