Read it as well, glad to see Magpul spelling out the bullshit for Hickenpooper, too bad he won't listen.

I'm pretty sure they are hoping the vague definitions get a good amount of us arrested and convicted so they can point to arrest statistics in campaigns to show how many "dangerous criminals" were taken off the streets.

You mean "arms traffickers" selling "illegal guns" fitted with "prohibited high capacity ammunition feeding devices" . . . all of which is legalese weasel words for "he traded a 10/22 with a 30 round mag to his neighbor for a beat up SKS capable of accepting a prohibited mag."

I expect the class 6 felony addon charge so see some use. Anything that puts violent criminals out of circulation longer is a good thing.

The rest of it. I'm waiting for some tourist to get nailed because they CC a 18 round gun. That'll help the state.

The sks is banned outright. Fixed capacity over 20 rounds so its verboten in Colorado after July 1st and the document seems to indicate that it isn't even grandfathered.

This document could be handy for the obvious upcoming defense people will need after July 1st.

and the SKS line of rifles which can have an internal ammunition source of 20 rounds.

How many SKS rifles do you know that have a 20 rd FIXED magazine???

Not that I am against the message, but I am kinda surprised Magpul used such a poor example in their "last stand" letter.

The rest of the letter wasn't enough for you?
That example was just pointing out yet ANOTHER of the *unintended* consequences of the POS bill and that this one will outright ban firearms, even if there aren't many out there.

The bulk of the letter is great, but I think the comments about the SKS holding 20 rounds could lead someone to be dismissive about the whole document, especially when they know (or find out) that 99% of SKS's have a 10 round magazine.

And yes, I happen to own a 20 round fixed magazine for my SKS that I bought when this whole abomination statred in 1994.
