Jensen arms setting up store in Wyoming

[JMBD2112]

Does the Guv have the authority, really? I believe we have this thing called the State Patrol. The CSP can and possibly might set up DUI check points. They ask to search your vehicle the answer is always polite but firm No.

I was asking about drones Jim, I would think the probability of a road block would be pretty slim since people buying mags wouldn't be the only people on the road, unless they want to profile Colorado plates

[Drilldov2.0]

You think he has that authority?

Bloomberg will send him a few I am sure.

Take those new mags out of their wrapper and drag them around in the gravel for a little while. That will work.

Again, there is no way they could prove you didn't already own (ie. pre-7/1/13) whatever magazines you were carrying at the time of the roadblock.
AND, there is no F'EN way I would consent to a car search.


The law is unenforceable.

Very true, but they could claim they are looking for someone, how many missing kids are there in CO/WY, and if they see anything in the car, they could always claim reasonable suspicion and make you the first person to be arrested of the law. Not a chance I'd take.

Buy something at the WY store that's legal in CO. If law enforcement stops you to search your vehicle upon returning to the state...

Two receipts, 30s on 1 paid with cash, legal stuff on the other paid with a card. Then you could show proof for one purchase saying you had the 30s already.

Yes it is perfectly legal to buy magazines in another state and bring them to CO. As long ad they are 15 round capacity and under for rifles/handguns. or 28" worth of shells or 8 round for shotguns.


Even if they set up a roadblock like a DUI checkpoint you tell them NO. Plus I believe it would be illegal to set up anything other than a DUI checkpoint unless they declare some type of emergency like an abducted kid etc.

Take some legally owned mags with you as well. Pay only in cash.

Hell i might take a box of 30s up there, buy some "CO legal" mags and see what happens. Not breaking the law one bit and it would be interesting to see how it plays out.

I highly doubt they'd put up a roadblock, but everyone also highly doubted this law would pass (even though everyone was still emailing/writing/calling legislators...).

Why not just check the date code to be safe (safer?) If it says 6/13 or older then you are golden; if not, you are a criminal.

ETA: Talking Pmags here

Its pretty stupid of Jensen's to mislead people on the law's effect, regardless of the odds of it being enforced. Stupid stunts like this are why I've seen people ask if magazines > 15 can be purchased outside Colorado and brought into the state post 7/1/13.

Not only pmags, all of my lancer mags and about half of my GI mags have date stamps.

I agree, I've done business with Jensen a few times and I'm kind of disappointed that they are potentially setting people up for failure

[Bailey Guns]

I must be the only one who really isn't worried about owning 15+ round magazines. I own them and I'll use them just like I always have and I'm not gonna worry about this chickenshit new law.

[wctriumph]

I suppose that if I had the extra cash and needed some extra mags I might go to WY to buy some, just not at this event. However, I don't have the spare cash for mags and besides, I did my thing with Magpul earlier this year so I have plenty on hand. If you want to go break the the law, please be my guest, I bet it would be very exciting to buy a 30 round PMag legally in WY and then smuggle it in to Colorado. I'm getting all sweaty just thinking about it. Hooooo!!

As others have noted, it is a law that cannot be enforced. We will either get the law repealed or thrown out at some point. Until then, do as you think best.

Ummm Magpul AK mags I may need some.
