Colorado gun laws, moving from boise ID

[DanielGlock007]

Ok, so my wife wants to move to Colorado around Aurora- Parker where her sister lives. And I wanted to know about the gun laws there. I read somewhere that in denver anything over a 20 round mag is illegal. And i have an ar15 and i dont think im willing to give up any of my gun rights to move. I live in boise Idaho and we have really good laws here. I already have my CCW Permit but from what I read It wont be valid once we move there. so that means i have to apply again for a ccw permit. So if anyone that lives there could tell me a little about the laws id really apriciate it,


Thanks.

Your AR-15 is fine. You just can't posses mags that hold over 20 rounds while in the city of Denver. I think you can pass through Denver with them. Likely if you show your ID and it shows you live some where else, and it is obvious you are going to the range or something, then you are okay. I have zero first hand experience with this though.

Welcome!

Yeah, Denver still has an AWB that includes a mag ban over 20 rounds.

We've actually got it really good re: gun laws in the state. Don't let that stop you from moving here. CCW permitting process is easy. If you have proof you've taken a class (the original certificate or other document that was issued) that's really all you need to apply here. Having said that, a class might be worth it just to learn the laws here.

A good place to start:

Title 18, Article 12 of the Colorado revised statutes

so i can still own them i just cant have them in denver? so if i just keep them in my house just in case shtf and buy a couple of 20 rounders to take with me i should be ok?

[hobowh]

Yup, there are not many places you can use them in the city of Denver anyway.

Also, what are the laws concerning pocket knives? does the blade have to be under 4inches is it illegal to have a pocket knife if you dont have a ccw permit? Just thinking of alternitaves for when im waiting for my new one.

We were just talking about this recently. I think the law was any fixed blade over 3.5" has to be open carried? Someone jump in here.
