Wyoming dealers can't sell to CO residents?

[Jamnanc]

I may have missed posts on this, your welcome to flame away. My friend had business in WY, while he was there he found a hipoint carbine for cheap that he wanted to buy. There was a sign from the ATF that said "No firearms sales to residents of Colorado." I don't get it. There's a background check, so no getting around the UBC. I asked him to get a pic later today. Ill post it when I get it.

I'd be surprised if the sign was from the ATF. I wouldn't be too surprised if it was some sort of store policy or something.

For a hi point? That sign was just good karma if you ask me.

They can't sell CO residents pistols per the ATF. Pistols have to be sold in state only. But no federal law prohibits selling long guns.

Jensen arms sells in wy to co residents? I thought it was only guns with baby ezploding woman raping pants pissing sand in the vag magazines that cause magical mushroom clouds?

I believe rifles can be sold to CO residents, Pistols may be sold, but have to be sent to an FFL down in CO for a transfer. - But I would have to ask my dealer if that is still true.

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.
