So you believe the intent of the law and those who voted for it is that people pay no more than $10 for person to person transfers done through an FFL?

No, you cannot enforce it nor does anyone in CO enforce it.

The reason it is written into the legislation is so they can argue affordability. The reason they don't actually enforce it and never intend to - ever - is because there wouldn't be anyone left to do transfers, thus causing a constitutional crisis (state constitution + federal constitution) whereas people could not buy, sell, or transfer firearms, and the law would be shut down.

It exists merely for the state gov't to have it's cake and eat it too, and yes, it can, and does all the time.

So, like virtually any other American regulation, law, and otherwise, don't expect your government to operate and follow it's own rulebook. If you do, then I have a bridge to sell you to Alcatraz. If you're mad about being charged $25, or $45, go ahead and give a dealer some lip, it'll get you real far. Or, accept that your country is as f***ed as any other, and where some you need to set money aside to bribe officers, here has its own issues too. Shop around, find a dealer with the lowest rate that is acceptable to you.
