5280 Armory

Yup. It takes yrs after greencard to become a citizen.

Simple answer : It takes about 3-5 years to get your citizenship depending on your personal situation.

I still have to wait one year before I can file and believe me I will.

I have to give my orginal citizenship for this .

Colorado is my home and I am proud to live in this country.

This why I was so shocked .I am also a Fire Fighter and try to do my best to serve my community.

Also as I said a permanent resident needs to have a clean record at any time.
Legal issues which are forgiven for US Citizens can lead into immediate deportation for permanenty residents.

I am a foreign born US citizen as well.
It was easy and simple when I was 18. I think I bought my first firearm before I applied to become a citizen. Gotta be 18 or older to apply to be a citizen, even if my parents are citizen (by naturalization).

Right now, they have a place you can write

I have to say, as a foreign born citizen, that I was quite shocked at how easy it was for me to legally purchase a firearm when I only had a green card...

Are you really pushing this discrimination thing? Are you going to sue the shops that only sell to LEO? Because if one shops policy is cause for discrimination I guess they all are. Leave it alone and just go to a shop that will sell to you. This pushing of PC bullshit is what brings this country down. If your feelings are that easily hurt I am truly sorry, but why push a lawsuit on a small business owner?

I see it from both sides. I have a very good friend that is now a citizen and it took years to become one. I also can understand a business owners right to only sell to a citizen and not a "permanent resident".

The business owner will lose a sale but that is his right as well. If it were me then I would not do business with that retailer.

Being an American I have been refused service in many a country. Does not matter how nice I have been just the fact that I am American has had shopkeepers turn there back and walk away. And I am not talking about a firearm but just a bottle of water.

I could go on but I think ya might get the drift.

I think that what 5280 has going for it is selection. Their prices are retail, maybe a touch higher in my eyes on some things, but not so bad on others. I find their ammo to be overpriced, but this may reflect the cost incurred when they have to replace what they currently have in stock.
There are lots of evil black things to look at- and many evil black accessories. I don't know of another Denver metro store that has the displayed stock that they do. They seem to always have at least 4-5 employees there, I'm always getting asked if I need help.

Maybe not.I will buy somewhere else. I still consider to report them to BBB.
I understand their decision it's the way they treated me which is pissing me off.
Their rating is A -not A + already.

Hey Timberline, please just take your business elsewhere- or open a shop of your own where you can make up your own rules. Every person and every business has the RIGHT to discriminate. You will be discriminating (i.e. choosing) when you shop somewhere else.

just one more reason on the already long list not to shop 5280 Armory.

Yes please, don't shop at 5280, they might hurt your feelings. I say awesome for me, now I can take advantage of their amazing selection even more. They treat me right and I will continue to shop there, and the less people that go in there with an attitude the better.
