How is Ogden, Utah as far as cost of living and....

The states attitude about the second amendment issue these days? I might have an opportunity to work there and relocating from Arvada, CO. Anyone been there or familiar with Ogden?

Ogden is probably the most liberal part of the SLC valley. There are way better places to live that are with in driving distance.

In Utah if it moves, kill it, if is in the ground, dig it up, trees are fair game.

As for living there, well, there are some nice places and Ogden isn't too bad. There are also a LOT of Mormons there, they stick together and they run the place. Lots of blondes too. You can get a beer at the strip clubs but no hard stuff but you have to join their club to drink at a bar. Great food around the SLC area and quite a few brew pubs to take advantage of and liquor prices from the gov' run outlets are reasonable for the most part.

Last two times I was in SLC area, I had absolutely no issue getting a stiff drink at a restaurant. Is there still a club system for bars only?

Will/would my CCW permit from Jeffco be accepted in Utah? Would there be any issues about bringing my AR and other handguns, any magazine laws like we have here lately, there?

Like most states when you move there you have to get a permit from there (unlike drivers' licenses you can't just convert your CO CHL to a UT one). Thankfully you can get a "non resident" permit in Utah so you could just get your Utah permit in advance of moving out there. I also don't think there's any "must be a resident for X days before applying" crap like most other states.
Here's some info.

Ok, then LESS stupid laws there :p

When I went through the BCI Instructor course a few years ago one of the troopers teaching the class said NOTHING gets through the Utah legislature until it's cleared by the gun lobby.
