Quick Question about Denvers Assault Weapons ban

[DD977GM2]

I don't know but maybe if you call the police department they can give you clarity..... Or just take someone's word on here how they interpret it..

I hope your kidding?

Before I found this wonderful site and a couple others with great firearm information on legality this and that
I called the Denver Sheriffs office and asked them about carrying in a vehicle in the city and county of Denver, this was back in 2007.
She said it was illegal to have the pistol with a round chambered on your person or within reach of you.
The pistol had to be locked away and no ammo near by, think of NY or NJ here, and that this was to prevent road rage shootings.
The Sheriff's Deputy was 100% incorrect and just because they are with a LEO Agency, does not mean they understand the specific firearm laws.
They understand what they want to protect themselves from criminals.

Yet when arrested you'll spend thousands cleaning your name. I think ignorance of the law should be a two way street.
