    Smile Soon in Colorado...

    Hi there !

    My name is Hannu Uronen. I am from Finland, but me & my wife are moving to Boulder, Colorado after couple of weeks.

    Reason for registering to this forum: we are both active sport shooters and we use AR-15 rifles for all IPSC and Finish military reservist matches.
    My company also builds our own Uronen Precision AR-15 match rifles here in Finland.

    Hope to meet other AR-15 people there !

    Best Regards,

    Hannu Uronen

    Welcome to Colorado and the forum.
    I hope you do well in Boulder. It's not really a gun owners kind of town.

    Welcome!!! Sorry for what is going to be an "interesting" experience in Boulder...

    Welcome!

    You will enjoy living in Colorado as there is so much to do and so many places to see. The weather is four seasons but pleasant. The people are friendly.

    Welcome, Hannu!

    Colorado is a wonderful place and is generally very gun-friendly. Boulder is a place that tends to attract people a little further left on the political scale and is not as gun-friendly as the remainder of the state tends to be. But it's a beautiful city and you'll most likely enjoy your time there.

    The neat thing is MagPul is headquartered there!

    I'd be very interested in hearing more about your company. Are you setting up shop here?

    I'm not sure if you are familiar with USA politics but there are two groups, Liberal (left) and Conservative (right).

    Conservatives tend more towards traditional values and liberty, gun ownership being among them.

    I won't even try to explain liberalism in the USA. To me it looks like a confusing lump of special interest groups and gun ownership is not among them. Maybe someone else can chime in.
