Boulder cannot restrict assault rifles.

The home rule stuff cannot be used to over rule state restrictions...so your area cannot say the state mag restrictions do not apply in their area.

I would expect to see increased pressure on a state level for more restrictions.
Well, an area can effectively can say “magazine bans don’t apply here”. It is just like illegal immigration: simply don’t enforce the law.

If a county DA won’t pursue charges and the county jail won’t accept prisoners charged with magazine ban possession, there isn’t much left to enforce the law.

And let’s be honest. In BoCo there is a place openly selling magazines. The city police 100% know about it as they sell gear to the police.

And the police like it because they want standard magazines. Gun stores don’t stock magazines that they hope police come in and buy. It’s not worth it. They need the general public to make money off of sub $20 products. It is about volume.

Sure police can mail order, but is is a PITA because they need department letter. And then it is not for “personal use”
