you're not required by Colorado law to go get a new DL card with your new addres when you get a new address. Just have to go online and put in a change of address and write it on the back of the card. Still easy to change it, buy the rifle and then change it back later.
What about college students at Boulder who have addresses out of the city?

Many places won't take the address just written on the back.
I don't understand how a local law can control what you do elsewhere.
"There are no finger prints under water."
So in order to skirt one law (Boulder), you break another law (current address). This cascades into a rank violation of state law, which you won't get out of in court, in order to fight a law which is probably very fightable in court (assuming the prosecutor isn't Peruvian, since they love to eat guinea pigs).
The DL *does* have to reflect your current address to do the 4473. Alternatively, you can use your old DL w/ old address, so long as you provide another form of state-issued ID with current address such as: hunting license, fishing license, etc.

You also cannot shoot one on public land.“Subsection (c)” provides an avenue for legal owners of assault weapons before June 15 to get a certification from local law enforcement by submitting to a background check, securely storing the weapon, and only possessing it on their own property, on the premises of a gunsmith, or on a licensed firing range, or while traveling to or from one of those locations.

You're right it won't get you out of trouble in court.
By law it "should"...but how many people innocently get caught up in moving, get busy with packing/unpacking and turning on utilities, arranging their place, getting settled in and legitimately forget to change their address on their DL?
How many people in the Denver area do something similar to avoid emissions testing on their cars?
Bet it happens more than we'd like to think.
But I have two points in regards to why I posted what I did...
1.) This garbage town legislation criminalizes law abiding citizens.
2.) This piece of crap legislation will not stop anyone in Boulder from buying, selling or transferring the weapons it targets.
If the citizens of Boulder want to get around it...they can. That's all I'm saying.
Not debating if it is right, wrong, legal or illegal.
Most gun owners simply aren't going to comply with this at all and not that I blame them either.
