Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
A local gunsmith/Boulder County Sheriffs Deputy told me something similar to that as well. Was probably 6-7 years ago? Actually might have been around the time of Sandy Hook, I remember having a long conversation with him after I picked up a couple FAL parts I had him refinish for me. He was a kit builder as well, built FALs and had a couple AKs.Originally Posted by electronman1729

I don't keep statistics or anything like that, but subjectively it seems like I've done a significant number of NFA Trusts for Boulder folks.
No longer accepting new Trust clients. Pretty much out of the law business completely.
I wonder if people out there just have the money to do it...
That could very well be the case. Money is all relative. $300 is chump change if you're accustomed to paying $800,000 for a not-so-spiffy 3 bed, 2 bath home with a 2 car garage!

My thoughts exactly. I think up until the last decade rural Boulder County had a lot of woodsmen and conservatives and maybe still do. But the cost of a suppressor and tax stamp is just not worth it to most middle class people I think.
There is a lot of gun hypocrisy in Boulder. All the trash migrating into Boulder encourages the wealthy Libs to buy guns and they quietly do so.
How many times have we heard of a home invasion in Boulder resulting in a shooting? A few years ago it was like every few months. Boulder Co did the typical "we're seeing if charges will be filed against the homeowner" dance and then dropped it.
I don't know if they would support a black rifle ban because of their programming or not. I suspect many mostly own handguns and probably think the same way fudds do about the subject (not my gun, not my problem).
Always eat the vegans first
I have a feeling that the Independence Institute would go after them pretty hard as well as a couple of their top guys live in Boulder.
I’ve sent letters to all the members asking what the possible ordinance may include as well as what their basis is for this.. of course not a single reply and I even know one of them personally.
Glad to see you are helping to fight this. I know not many people think much of Boulder, but like it has been pointed out, if Boulder tries to do this, other cities will too.
Boulder residents.. Boulder gun ban council meeting next Thursday..
The City Council will be going over their gun ban proposal on Thursday Apr 5th at 6:00. I plan on attending. I have already contacted all of the members and have had a discussion with one of them. I have added a list of members if you haven't voiced your opinion yet.

For those of you who think this is just a stupid Boulder issue, take note that if they get away with it by claiming "home rule" override to the states's gun law preemption statute, the following cities can do just the same by a simple progressive majority on the city council:
Alamosa
Arvada
Aspen
Aurora
Avon
Black Hawk
Breckenridge
Brighton
Burlington
Canon City
Carbondale
Castle Rock
Cedaredge
Centennial
Central City
Cherry Hills Village
Colorado Springs
Commerce City
Cortez
Craig
The list just keeps going...
