What is the status on the SB25-003 fight?

[bellavite1]

Or is there any fight in the works at all?
Is any organization planning to do anything about it?

The NRA is a toothless old dog. All bark, no bite.
RMGO has claimed they are getting ready to file lawsuits.
The GOP has called for a DOJ review.

But I can find nothing concrete about any real action occurring.

It doesn't go in to effect until Aug 1st 2026. I'm not sure that you can file a lawsuit before it actually goes in to effect due to the fact that damages have not yet occurred.. at least that is what I have seen the courts say about other cases. Could be wrong though.

You're not wrong. Here is how my lawyer (chatgpt) summed it up-

Law signed April 10, 2025. General effective date is September 1, 2025. The actual ban on manufacturing, selling, or buying the listed semiauto firearms doesn’t kick in until August 1, 2026. The law technically exists before then, but those specific restrictions aren’t enforceable until that date. That means you can’t really sue over that part until it’s in effect, because you’d be challenging something that isn’t operational yet.

If they argue the law’s existence is already infringing on the Second Amendment, they’re trying to get around the “not yet in effect” problem by saying the harm is happening now — for example, chilling the market, scaring off buyers and sellers, or discouraging manufacturers from doing business in Colorado.

Sometimes courts buy that argument, especially in constitutional cases, because they see it as preventing harm before it fully hits. Other times, judges tell them to come back when the enforcement date arrives.

So, come September 1st, the portion banning binary and FRT triggers is officially enforceable, with no grandfathering, correct?

The Colorado chapter of the National Rifle Association sued state leadership Tuesday over a sweeping firearm regulation that will require Coloradans to take safety courses to purchase most semiautomatic rifles starting next August.

The Mountain States Legal Foundation filed the challenge Tuesday on behalf of the CSSA and several individual plaintiffs who argue the measure violates their Second Amendment rights by limiting their ability to operate and obtain firearms.

The law has to take effect, and an injury has to occur before a suit can be brought, they said.

But mysteriously, libfucktards can get injunctions against 2+2=4 because global warming is racist [facepalm]

Will be interesting what the court says in regards to this.

Also interesting that the plaintiffs are asking for a Jury trial.

It'll be dismissed for lack of standing most likely, otherwise dismissed for whatever creative reason a judge wants to take.

At the core, they'll use ANY excuse to get something off their docket ASAP, saves them personal effort.

Also It'll never go to a jury trial, it'll be disposed of via Rule 12(b) or otherwise summary judgment in any event.


But, they'll make some good donation $ in the meantime. Nearly free PR.
