    Default No background check at purchase for CHP holders...

    Sorry if someone brought this up in a thread I haven't seen...

    I just traded emails with Greg Brophy (Colorado Senate district 1), he has introduced a bill to remove the background check requirement at time of firearms purchase for those who hold a Colorado CHP. Steve Humphrey (House 48, I think that's Greeley???) is sponsering the bill in the House. Similar bill passed in 2009, but Ritter vetoed it... Get on your congressmen and also get on Hick to try to get at least this passed.

    I think we have a serious uphill battle in Colorado to fight the bans and stupidity that is flowing out, but lets do what we can to push good, helpful bills, that way those who vote against these bills can be asked why they didn't support "common sense" gun bills...

    I wouldn't be suprised to see citizen initiated pro gun initiatives next November...

    Utah has that. It makes sense. Not only would it does speed up the process but save money that is being spent running these checks.

    It will expand a firearm owner/purchasers rights.

    We had it once before, briefly, but it was in effect.

    Wont ever happen, again, in Colorado -- for the same reason we have the CBI checks in addition to NICS.....

    This will die in committee, unfortunately. The issue with this is that permits are issued by the counties, not the state, so they are not compliant with NICS standards. For CO to enact this would require changes to the current CHP system to provide for state issuance.

    And Hick won'y do this, even though it's "common sense"...

    Here in WY I just show my CFP, sign my name, and walk out with a gun. It's pretty awesome, fortunately we don't have the problem of mass liberal migration in our state.
