Carrying In Bar, Restaurants And Liquor Stores
Is there any regulations and if so do they vary between counties?
Just don't drink, no other restrictions.
No restrictions under state law, thus no restrictions on concealed carry with permit statewide. The same rules apply concerning BAC limits as with driving (.5mg/dl) apply to possession of a firearm while intoxicated.
CRS18-12-106
Definition of "under the influence" CRS 12-22-303
Light a fire for a man, and he'll be warm for a day, light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life...

ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?
Let me clarify, I am not planning to drink, but I want to carry, of course unless there is a sign etc.
However I seem to remember that in Lakewood, for example, there was a law, ordinance or whatever prohibiting carrying in any establishment that sells alcohol...

"Under the influence" is not defined for CCW. While it is believed to be the same as driving that may not be the case.
By going to CRS 18-12-106, subsection (1)(d) will give you the CRS 12-22-303, which is the definition for a controlled substance, specifically stating subsection (7), which is:
(7) "Controlled substance" shall have the same meaning as in section 18-18-102 (5), C.R.S.
There is no specific definition for "under the influence" in relation to CCW, as NewRacer has pointed out.

A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up to and including my life.'
That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.
oops...got in a hurry
I'll update it later, assuming I can find the appropriate statute.
My understanding is that for the purposes of 18-12-106, the courts are applying the same standards as for DUI, but I haven't been able to research the precedents yet. Either way, it's a class 2 misdemeanor to be in possession of a firearm while intoxicated.
Maybe 18-1-804 Or 42-4-1301

lets do a Irvingesque what if... you are sitting at home having a few beers watching what ever someone breaks in and you have to resort to deadly force. can/will they still hit you with the misdemeanor?
You sir, are a specialist in the art of discovering a welcoming outcome of a particular situation....not a mechanic.
My feedback add 11-12 ish before the great servpocaylpse of 2012
I'm going to guess ('cause I'm not a lawyer) but I'd bet that self defense is an affirmative defense (specifically one of "necessity") against the "intoxicated with a firearm" charge.
Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".
