Are Binary Triggers Legal in Louisiana?

Louisiana's ATF compendium identifies the machine-gun provisions in Revised Statutes 40:1752 through 40:1785, including handling, exceptions, registration, and unregistered transfers. The chapter does not supply a separately named binary-trigger category, so its defined automatic-fire terms remain the state-law reference point.

Binary triggers are legal under federal law and are not machine guns under 26 U.S.C. § 5845(b); ATF treats the trigger pull and the trigger release as two separate functions of the trigger, so one round is fired per function. Cargill v. Garland (2024) concerned bump stocks, not binary triggers, and does not change this.

Scope: Binary triggers (Franklin Armory BFSIII and similar): fire one round on trigger pull and one on release. Forced reset triggers are a separate class.
