Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
My coworkers all gave me the deer in the headlights look when I told them you were allowed to carry in a vehicle without a license. People who have grown up in Colorado or at least lived here for a decade or so.Originally Posted by tmleadr03
For the record, I wasn't worried. I was concerned that I'd have to have a conversation with my daughter's bio-dad (I've mentioned him on these forums before, he's a real f'ing piece of work douche bag loser). Never know how he'd try to use this info should we ever take him to court again.
My wife said I handled it like I was sitting at the poker table holding the nutz, I showed no fear or apprehension. If he would've asked the question I would have replied in the affirmative.

Im sorry you got talked into going to the mile high flea market.
+1!
Agreed. I'll never go there without...really don't have plans on ever going back. Saw some very interesting & disturbing body art. When did the practice of inking female gang bangers boobies with horrible tattoos become the norm? One "woman" had a paragraph on her chest, really, 4 lines of text.
Makes me appreciate Boulder a bit more.....I'm gonna go find a tree and hug it
You know all that crappy broken lawn furniture, old kids toys, old gas grills, and other junk that you muck out and put to the curb, that magically disappears before the trash truck comes? I'll give ya three guesses where it goes.
Oh, I got stopped recently in Lone Tree about 2am. I assume one of those "find a reason to pull him over and check him out things", since it was so late and I could have been DUI, but I was coming home from work. Anyway, two cops, one at each front window, and the cop at my pass. window saw my .45 on my hip. He said "I see you have a gun!" I said "Yep, and I just gave my permit to your partner with my license".
No hassles, no disarming, no proned out, no clubbing, no "get outta the car", but he did hang right there and keep an eye on me and made small talk (checking for alcohol breath I'm sure), and his partner appeared to do a thorough check of all my shit. Made my ass pucker, but a non-event in the end.

Don't need a CCW in your car anyway...
It can be concealed on your person in your car...with or without a CCW.
Ohio cop was stupid, the majority of the people I work with would say the same thing to almost anyone, including your grandmother, "just make sure you keep your hands where I can see them" or something to that effect.
even if you dont have your ccw its totally legal to have a CW in your car
Just because it's totally legal doesn't mean you can't or won't catch a world of hell and hurt from some officer that doesn't know or care that it's legal. I'd prefer to keep it to myself, if possible, but I won't lie about it or hide it. They deserve to know if they're concerned enough to ask. One cop might start talking range stories, the next might go apeshit. Most LEO's wouldn't, but they are out there.
"Legal" only covers your ass in the courtroom, might not help you on the roadside. Cops are like any other humans, most are decent and friendly, but some can be downright antisocial. I've damn sure met more of the nice ones than not. JMHO.
