Wyoming dealers can't sell to CO residents?

I don't think the ATF cares too much about enforcing state laws. Probably a store policy.

Don't know where you got that idea, but it's way not true.

How so? To my understanding, ATF is a federal LE organization that enforces federal law. My wxperience with ATF have concerned federal, not state, gun laws. I could see how they would cooperate with state authorities on matters cases where both state and federal law comes into question, but I can't think of an example of ATF getting involved in purely a state matter. If I'm totally wrong, I'm wiling to learn.

Walmart in Laramie started doing this pre-July 1, but told me it was a store policy. Another shop in town said they were selling long guns as per federal law to CO residents until July 1, then, after that, removing magazines over 15 rounds from the sale, when selling rifles to Colorado residents, as a store policy.

When a firearm is stolen, the ATF is involved, same for other things which the average john / jane doe is usually not aware of. UNLESS it's high profile.

My point exactly Possessing a stolen firearm is a federal crime.
