Denver AWB

[Hannu]

Again, stupid questions from guy just moved around... Just want to keep out of trouble with stupid AWB laws

I assume Denver city / county is this : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ma...ver_County.svg

-I can not find out, if a handgun with 20+ magazine is AWB or not ? I know it says rifles and shotguns, but handguns are not in non-AWB-firearms list...

-Can I really be arrested while driving through Denver with my AR-15 and 30rd mags ?

This made me thinking :

What if I am not a resident of Denver? Can I be arrested if I am in Denver with my AW and hi-cap magazine? YES. Denver provides for an affirmative defense if you are not a resident of Denver and are traveling through Denver with your AW and hi-cap magazine. You can be and likely will be arrested and jailed and your vehicle will be towed and stored. You have to hire a lawyer to get the charges dismissed. In some cases in the past, Denver’s City Attorney allowed those arrested with an AW to give the guns to the city in exchange for dropping charges. This can be less costly than paying an attorney to get the charges dismissed and to get your guns back.

YES! you can. They'll take your guns, then you have to fight to get them back in court.

YES! you can. They'll take your guns, then you have to fight to get them back in court.

Plus your vehicle, and its contents....this despite Federal law guaranteeing safe transport.....

Interesting... Fortunately, my car GPS can store streets that I want to avoid
One thing is bothering me : Can I get arrested, while having AR-15 and ONLY 20 round mags in my car in Denver ?
