Most of us I believe support your decisions to move operations if the state passes hb 13-1224, but we also lose in the process. Could anyone from Magpul comment on this proposition?

We are working on something for this. Stand by.

I was hopeful they might do something like this. I'll try and add more info as it comes available.

That would be awesome if they could do something that would work for the average person. I can see how this could not be as cool as we hope like people trying to buy 1000 of them at a time for resale out of state or lines that make in impossible to actually be able to get a few....

I mean if they just open their doors to Colorado people, can you imagine the line, the wait? Not being a nay-sayer or negative ned, just saying I hope they can find a way so that it works for the average Joe...

Facing the prospect of not being able to replace any mags, I'd be in for 10-20 at a normal price.

It's hard to know how many one should have, for the rest of your life, and maybe for the rest of my son's life... [Dunno] Oh yeah, Now I remember, MORE.

I could definitely use some more. It'll be interesting to see if they can pull this off.

I'd be in for another 10 for sure.

Larue is supposedly going to do this too, bit they're going to take all Colorado orders and bump them ahead of everyone else. If they will truly do it, if you place an order now with Larue you'll probably get your mags before I do, and I placed my order on 12/18. :(

" State police have closed off all roads leading in to the soon to be vacated Magpul manufacturing facility today. As thousands of vehicles clogged every road in to their warehouse. This is seen as Magpul's way of giving the Finger to the Colorado legislature, According to a Magpul spokesperson, locating To a more Gun friendly environment"

Yeah good for them as the legislation is not looking good for us. What a great company. At least they're willing to help lessen the sting a bit.

I am definitely staying posted as well. That would be awesome!

Sorry, You are correct. That would be an assholish move of me. You are all residents first, potentially would not be able to get magazines.

I do love the state and still call it my home.

No offense, but that would piss me off.

If this goes through, I'll take both of my boys and have them get receipts in THEIR names.

I do see your point on how it would be cruel to take away some magazines from true residents who could not receive them any more. And I will retract my comment and let you all have dibs.

Receipts in our kids names may be a very good idea depending on what these retards in office dream up in the future.

I would be down for 15 or 20. Too bad they don't work in my FS2000, I will need a source of metal mags too.

It's terrible that we even have to think about doing this.

If you're a service member stationed in WY while maintaining residency in CO, that's a different story. I had no way of knowing this from your original post.

If they do this I sure hope they limit it to 10 mags (or less) per customer. I can see all the proffiteers buying them all up just to turn around and re-sell at 10 times the price.
This should be for the people of Colorado not for a couple guys to get rich off of.

I think I might put some in my NFA trust also. That way they should always be available to whomever is on the trust. Just a note, if you remove the dust flaps from your fs2000 they will work. I might try this myself.

I'd check that with a lawyer. The way the bill is written, that wold not protect you. The District Court Judge (Federal) I spoke to yesterday read the bill and then answered my questions and felt that a trust would not protect you from the transfer clause in the bill.

If the bill passes and your boy(s) are born after 07/01/13 will it matter since transfer will probably be prohibited?

and that's why I quickly retracted my statement. I would too be very upset if someone out of state asshole tried to infringe on a CO only buy. I can still get mag around town, and shipped to me, so I will be curtious and let the true CO people have first dibs.
