Firearm Purchase Waiting Periods (in CO, 3-day waiting period): A Right delayed is a Right denied.

We all know what this and all of the other anti-2A laws are, "death by 1000 cuts". Even if these restrictions are taken to court (at a tremendous cost to those seeking to remove the infringements), and *if* the plaintiffs win, the State can take months to re-instate the Rights ("It's going to take us time to revise our procedures") - and usually no action is taken until after they lose on appeal (even more time and money involved). You and I challenging these restrictions could very well bankrupt us, even with assistance from national gun rights organizations. But the state never has to worry about where the money to fight these repugnant laws will come from - they just tax the peasants citizens more.

The State knows exactly what they're doing and the possibility of losing in the courts - but they get their way for a time. They also know that when cases go before SCOTUS, the decisions are usually quite narrow in nature instead of addressing all potential aspects of state authority on the matter. This just leaves the door open wide for the states to keep pulling these shenanigans over and over.

There have been a few Federal District decisions (and is currently awaiting SCOTUS decision) ruling against magazine capacity restrictions, yet since July, 2013 CO has maintained a 15-round capacity limit which prevents you and I from purchasing certain magazines, and in some cases, some firearms.

SCOTUS needs to set a hard, firm and clear definition for what "infringement" means pertaining to firearms, possession, magazines, other accessories, and ammunition and States need to be forced to comply immediately with those decisions. Instead, SCOTUS continues to pick one cherry off of the tree at a time.
