72 hour waiting period and 4/1 tax question?

[th3w01f]

I've been looking and haven't found an exact answer, I forgot 4/1 was next Tuesdat. There's a handgun I'd like to buy but I've only found it in stock at Cabelas. 4.5" Mamba-x in case anyone knows another shop.

From what I've read here it sounds like if I go into Cabela's today, I won't get to pick it up until Tuesday 4/1 since they don't honor the 72 hours. With the new law would I pay today or on Tuesday and get hit with the new tax?

You pay for the firearm, taxes and fees today.

I just bought a gun at Sportsmans warehouse. They charged me for the gun and background check, then charged the tax when i picked up the gun. No explanation as to why. I think it has to do with refunds if I didn't past the background check. Overall Sportsman's wasn't a thrilling experience.

Sportsman’s has gone down hill on the last few years.

That’s weird, I just bought a gun from Sportsman warehouse Monday. I picked up my gun today, I payed for the background check today. I wasn’t charged the extra 6.5 percent tax.

Sorry to see CO has fallen so far. 72 hours? What next an unhoused tax on all firearms and related accessories?

I heard a rumor of required training, fees and approval from LEO’s to buy guns to reduce crime.

Before I started the background check, I specifically asked, "I pay for everything today? " The answer was, "You pay for the gun and background today and the tax when you pick it up." When I asked why, the salesman told me that's the way their system is set up.

No gun for me, oh well.

That makes as much sense as a football bat but as far as what Ben stated on refunds it does have merit.

This state is done folks- and it’s just gonna get worse.
i can’t wait until the next legislative session!
Face it- when it comes to firearms this state is now ruled by Anytown, Giffords Law Center, Moms Demand Action and the like.

Prove me wrong.

Least they talked to you. I stopped at Sportsman’s in Pueblo today to buy some air rifles for a project. I had a question for the gun counter, three were standing there, one looking at 4473s. They glanced at me standing in front of them. I was trying to be polite, but they never bothered to acknowledge me. After a couple minutes of me standing looking at them from literally 6 inches from the counter, I turned around and left. Big 5 had the air rifles I needed, so I purchased 4 along with all the gear I needed.

I was able to buy on Sat and Sam at the Lone Tree location was great. We had a good discussion on SB 003. It's nice that someone at Cabelas seems to actually care and understand what's happening in our state.

I’ve been buying a lot of ammo at the Sheridan store. There’s one guy at the gun counter that’s really knowledgeable, friendly and just a decent guy. He was advising folks looking at guns to buy before 4/01 lol.
