There's already a long post about this................. right below your post.......... the first one........ right below your post:
https://www.ar-15.co/threads/194388-...lative-session
I agree, could use a separate thread, as long as we keep this one to the particulars and facts about that specific law, and not the overall session and political shenanigans going on.
So my question on a specific of this law would be I think they are saying recoil operated pistols like 1911, or browning action or for that case almost every handgun outside of a desert Eagle 50 would not be included? I think they wrote this to try to grab the AR 15 base pistols. I guess a question I would have is would an MP five variant also be banned? My guess is that they would say yes since it is gas delayed. I guess it might also capture a HNK P7 pistol. Since it uses gas and it’s operating system?
One of their arguments during the "high capacity" magazine ban hearings was limiting magazine size didn't matter because you can switch them out so quickly. Hypocrites
Wait til someone shows them an Enfield rapid run.
How are they hypocritical?
They were told banning standard capacity magazines wont solve what they want to solve.
So they came out with this. No removable magazines.
They are being very open about what they are doing and saying exactly what they are doing what they say and saying what they will do. They want all semi auto gone (first). Then they will come for other guns.
They are playing the long game of incrementalism.
10 years from now most people in Colorado wont have a semi auto so they will just go along with the program. Sure, we will scream and shout at first.. but so what?
And it passed senate committee, now heads to entire senate.
Unfortunately we won't escape it this year. This is a done deal now. Polis won't veto or sign it he'll let it sit there and pass.
What would stop you from purchasing out of state?
There is no registration, and if there was would you comply?
From what I understand, at least if you are buying from an FFL, you’re going to have to fill out a 4473 and show ID. FFL‘s and other states are supposed to know that you would not be able to buy that gun in Colorado, so they are supposed to not sell it to you. A few years ago there was I think about a girl in Florida came up here and was obsessed with columbine, and bought a shotgun here, even though she was not old enough to buy it in Florida. The gun store here got in trouble? Something like that?
Transfer I guess would get around that problem.
I think we talked about this recently. In regards to FFL‘s,Can you only buy a handgun in your home state? And buy a rifle in states that about your own state? I may be wrong on that.
Correct. Can't buy handguns out of state. Can buy long guns. Technically no private party sales with out of state residents anywhere in the country, either. E.g. even where it is legal, it has to be between two residents of that state. Technically.
Been gone from co 7 yrs no, saw this coming 20+ yrs ago. Just wait till someone hacks the forum, outing those still living in CO as potential domestic terrorist.
But, but it will never happen.
No it will not.
Nor will CO pass bgc at gun shows, or limit mag capacity, no more FTF sales, waiting periods to buy, or oh i don't know a Ban on semi autos.
Tell us CO democrats, who exactly is a threat to democracy, again?
I've been concerned about something like this with every new member that's joined the site in the last few years. I'm left wondering if the new CO member is truly legit, or an anti-gunner planning to wait quietly until enough of their cohorts join and they can start spamming us en masse while also collecting as much info on all of us to try to dox us.
Can someone please clarify something for me please? It states in the bill no sales, manufacturing, etc. does this mean even if we have an upper and lower but need barrels, handguards, bcg’s, etc? Company’s will stop shipping parts to CO?
I would assume that this would apply to sales of the lower receiver in the case of an AR or the upper in the case of an FAL. You have to look at the definition of manufacturing which is included in the bill. I would assume it is broad and includes assembly of a firearm by an individual.
I highly doubt non regulated parts would be restricted.
That?s exactly what I was assuming but thought I might have been being paranoid. This really is one of the worst bans ever, even CA isn?t this bad holy f*

In reality it is really no different than the California law that requires a tool to be used for a detachable magazine. It used to be that if you had a rifle that didn't have any evil features than you could have a removable magazine but i think that has gone away in the last year or two.
The even scarier part of the bill is the part that says Co Attorney General can redefine meanings "at will"
I have finally read the bill.
I do see a rather interesting hole in the proposed legislation. I'm being mindful to not post it on the internet... but I'll share if it passes.
I can say this does not prevent inheritance, which is UNUSUAL. Normally the progressive strategy is a patient one, wait for everyone to die and they have them removed in a generation. OFC, maybe their long term is to eventually pass another bill to prohibit inheritance.
Yeah, being about to transfer to an heir is well known.
"Under the bill, a semiautomatic gun with a detachable magazine could still be transferred to an heir, someone in another state, or a federally licensed firearm dealer."
Senate majority whip says he doesn’t support the weapon ban part of this bill, does support banning triggers that he thinks are too fast.

I would think of the Democratic whip is coming out this publicly against it that it’s chances aren’t very good? I have a feeling he’s taking direction from Polis. Take a win on the bump stocks and keep the title. I doubt we’ll be so lucky next time.
They did get me for another MP five and HK 53.
Just got an email about a rally against this bill on Saturday the 8th, 12p. The Gallery Range 1350 Colorado Mills Parkway, Lakewood. Never heard of the place but got the email through the USCCA.
I heard about it from a guy from Delta Defense on KNUS this morning.
They are going to have Ian Escalante from RMGO and Nick Hinrichsen speak.
Seems kinda silly to hold a rally for an anti-gun bill at a shooting range, but what do I know?
I would have invited Tom Sullivan and David Hogg.
I thought I saw something going to be at the Centential Gun store/range too?
Let’s go close down I-25 and I-70 to show people how serious we are. That will win them over.. I was near downtown this afternoon and it seems the non-natives were getting restless. People walking towards the capital with Mexican flags…. To protest what exactly??? You can’t make this stuff up…. It only makes sense if they are Venezuelians trying to make the Mexicans look bad..
But you can still buy a "blicky wit da switch" from G-Money with no paperwork. Be sure to tell him "Gib me dem stendos, yo." They seem to have plenty. No serial numbers either.
Aren't they supposed to vote on it on the 7th? Why hold a rally after the fact?
More updates...

**Apologies, I was a day off on my dates**
Any word on today's activity? I tried looking for an update online just now but so far I've only found the article that .455_Hunter posted.
Colorado (Democrat) Senate Majority Whip Hinrichsen said he would vote “NO”
Attachment 98261
Didn’t one of the sponsors pull his name from it? Said he didn’t know what he was signing up for? What a crock. Either way it’s good though. He either got enough pressure that he flipped, or EveryTwit did missprepresent and people pols will be less likely to sign up for it. I assume that Polis was leaning on people to keep this off his desk.
Good job Dudley?
God that sucks to say…
Sen. Marc Snyder of Manitou Springs

"Sen. Marc Snyder of Manitou Springs said he didn’t fully understand its effect when he agreed to attach his name to it."
Of the 23 Democrats in the chamber, 19 have either verbally committed to voting “yes” on the bill when asked by The Sun or have signaled they will support it by serving as cosponsors.
Two Democrats — Snyder and Sen. Nick Hinrichsen of Pueblo — say they can’t vote for the measure as is, while two more — Sens. Dylan Roberts and Kyle Mullica — haven’t said how they will vote on the legislation.
All 12 Republicans in the Senate are expected to vote against Senate Bill 3.
It takes 18 votes to pass a bill out of the Senate.
Looks like evertown and others are funded through USAID. Fantastic. Hopefully someone brings that up
