Colorado 3-day Waiting Period

[hollohas]

I think private party transfer BGC compliance is going to decrease.

I have already found it easier to consign things than to attempt to sell them via private party transfers.

Likely with this it will be even more so.

More than it possibly does, now?

Uh-huh

I've found consignment fees at shops have jumped considerably. Most seem to be 20-25%, I had an issue with 15%, though I'm a grumpy old fart and liked it when the fee was only 10%. I have a pistol that I've been trying to sell for awhile, I could drop it 20% I guess to see if it would move before the waiting period starts but may just leave it in the back of the safe.

This suck of this state is expanding exponentially. If my family/grandkids weren't here I'd move.

This is exactly why I'm still here. If there was a way I could convince them to move with me I'd be putting my house on the market today.

I have to have my grandkid fix a few times a month minimum.


As to the upcoming 3-day wait period requirement... I just ordered 5 lowers which should hold me off through any builds I want to make for many years to come. I need to acquire LPK's and full upper and stock parts before CO decides to ban that stuff too (we all know it's coming).


ETA: Went to the FFL the lowers are being sent to (Springs Armory) and let them know of the incoming shipment for me. They were very pleasant and told me they'd give me a call once the items arrived so I could do the BGC and get the items (they even indicated that right now the BGC's are coming back quickly). I verified with them that they still just charge $26 for the first item for veterans, plus $5 for each additional item. Would I prefer it if it were a flat $26 fee for any/all items? Sure, but given what you folks are telling me so many other places are now charging I think I'm getting off cheap.

We at silverbullet charge $40 ($25 if you are a member).

We at silverbullet charge $40 ($25 if you are a member).

So come Oct 1, it will still be $40($25)? And you'll be holding/storing the transfered firearm for 3+ days?

Colorado is rapidly overcoming my 2A-based objections to moving back to Hawaii. If I have to live in an objectively anti-2A state (despite a rather protective state constitution), I may as well be in an anti-2A state where I can pick a fresh papaya or mango off the tree for breakfast.
