    Didn't RMGO decline when pushing the limit to 30 rounds was on the table? Because it wasn't a full repeal if memory serves...

    Is that correct or am I turned around on who was responsible for not accepting the 30 round limit?

    Yes and no.. despite what people want to think the 30 round thing was just some random statement from a representative, it was never seriously discussed and would have never gone through regardless of what Dudley was saying at the time.

    It was 20 rounds. They were willing to accept a 20 round mag limit, the others pushed for 15. D/brown raised a ruckus and you got stuck with 15 rd limit.

    That's not my recollection. The bill as originally introduced by Rapsheet has a 10 round limit:

    http://www.leg.state.co.us/clics/cli...le=1224_01.pdf

    In later discussion one of the Dems offered 15 as a compromise, and the frickin other Democrats agreed to that change for no reason at all, as they had the votes for 10.

    It wasn't until the sixth version of the bill that we saw 15 rounds as the limit.
