    There are a couple states that have passed legislation that states that any additional federal firearms laws would be null and void. I think (throwing from the hip after a couple Rios margs) maybe Missouri, Wyoming and Montana? South Craolina seems to be in the same realm to me.

    I thought Texas did as well?

    Despite what the rest the country thinks, Texas gun laws are a bit shit.

    Yeah, Texas is not what people think.. Texas sold off all their public land decades ago. There is very little to no public shooting areas as in National Forest, BLM or State public hunting grounds.

    Inhave looked into moving to Texas, I have good friends in New Braunfels. When you look at public land in Texas it is pretty bleak.

    So here is how I see it. They pass it. It goes to court and the city claims that the Meyer decision hold for them too because the Assault Weapons are too much of a threat.

    The real question is what does the CO Supreme Court look like now compared to back then? If they have four solid Progressive votes, all the lawyer for Boulder has to do is show up and say that guns are bad, pretty please. Aurora will go, I would think. I really don't know what it looks like otherwise. These local elections will get hot again. Frankly, I think it was a mistake moving to CO from the midwest. Crazy house prices, crazy traffic, and crazy laws- not to mention the mountians are a tease with cost and traffic. Give me WI or MI with all the lakes and land for fun and winters to choke fair-weather Progressives migration. All ready have started in with the wife that this isn't working for me. Eight years for my daughter to go to college and I don't see myself here anymore.

    Colorado in the mutation or liberal to progressives had hewed closer to the libertarian angle. Lots of progressives, but a lot of libertarians too.

    I know people won't like it, but if all this AWB stuff goes to SCOTUS and Kennedy feels grumpy, the NFA and shooting competitor carve out may be all that we end up with.

    The mag limit is really where they are screwing with things right now. If Boulder goes 10, then Denver will go 10 and maybe do a real AWB ban like the Boulder one. Progressive Virtue-signalling and all.
    I'll stop buying black rifles when my wife stops buying black shoes.

    None. The parasitic mass (known as californians) that has moved across the country destroying every freedom in it's path. Is destined for a town council seat near you.

    But will he actively go out and confiscate firearms? Yes, Boulder and Boulder Co have lap dogs in place but when shiat gets real, what will they do?

    I read somewhere, can't find any facts, that Boulder has the highest SBR concentration in the state. Any facts to support that?

    Grew up in TX. The only place a citizen could shoot was at a private range. Luckily I knew private land holders and could shoot on their property. Shooting areas are shrinking around here but still more options than what I grew up with.

    I have heard that Boulder has one of the highest NFA per person registrations in the country as well from a few sources but can't find any specific numbers online in regards to cities specifically. The founder of Soldier of Fortune Magazine lives in Boulder as well as some other people under the radar so who knows.

    Here are some NFA numbers from 2015. Colorado has 1.36 machine guns per 1000 residents, 3.1 suppressors per 1000, .82 SBRs per 1000, .31 SBSs per 1000 and 8.89 destructive devices per 1000. None of the numbers that I have found list per city/capita. Based on these numbers I don't see it unless the majority of NFA items in Colorado are in Boulder.
