They are de facto banning Suppressors by making host firearms illegal to own.
Banning all rifles and pistols with threaded barrels... Gotta keep those deadly flash hiders and barrel shrouds out of the state. |

Gotta keep those deadly flash hiders and barrel shrouds out of the state. View Quote Yep. Basically. But from what I read in this, there is nothing specifically withdrawing CO from the NFA. I have a Turbo K on the way. I'm worried its under threat. I hope it clears very fast for me. |

Quoted: You should be worried, but I don't see anything specific to NFA items in this bill. View Quote (XIII) ANY PART OR COMBINATION OF PARTS DESIGNED OR 10 INTENDED TO CONVERT A FIREARM INTO AN ASSAULT WEAPON AS DEFINED 11 IN THIS SUBSECTION (2). This item is my major stress point. Any part? So all flash hiders, compensators, uhh, stocks? Trigger parts? Barrels? Bro. I think this is doom. and im not being hyperbolic. |

(a) ASSAULT WEAPONS ARE NOT SUITABLE FOR SELF DEFENSE
That'll be news for cops. And SWAT. (b) THE FIREARMS INDUSTRY HAS SPECIFICALLY MARKETED 19 ASSAULT WEAPONS AS TACTICAL, HYPER MASCULINE, AND MILITARY 20 STYLE IN A MANNER THAT OVERTLY APPEALS TO THE VERY PEOPLE MOST 21 LIKELY TO ACQUIRE SUCH WEAPONS AS A MEANS TO GAIN INFAMY AS A 22 MASS SHOOTER; How fucking offensive is that little blurb? You can practically hear the liberal middle aged woman sneer while writing that. |

Also re-read the entire thing. Not one word about grandfathering. This kills sales, not sure about possession. I'm not sure where they're saying it grandfathers shit.
I know it was said in committee, but a lot of things were said. If it's not in the bill, it doesn't exist. ETA reread it again. Nothing about grandfathering or current possesion. It is just "A 16 BAN ON KNOWINGLY MANUFACTURING, IMPORTING, PURCHASING, SELLING, 17 OFFERING TO SELL, OR TRANSFERRING OWNERSHIP OF AN ASSAULT 18 WEAPON, CAUSING THE MANUFACTURE, IMPORTATION, PURCHASE, SALE, 19 OFFER TO SELL, OR TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP OF ASSAULT WEAPONS IN 20 COLORADO IS IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF THE CITIZENS AND GUESTS OF 21 OUR GREAT STATE." |

Quoted: You should be worried, but I don't see anything specific to NFA items in this bill. View Quote NFA doesn't matter in this case, the bill currently defines "assault weapon" as any semi-automatic weapon as well as any parts to assemble a semi-automatic weapon - Yes even your semi-auto waterfowl shotgun pinned to 2 is an assault weapon Luckily my .460 S&W is safe and non-assaulty but due to the "sensitive places" ccw restriction bill I can't carry it most places in the city to fend of crackheads The bill text is here, everyone should read it to see and understand the lunacy the dems are trying to sign into law |

Could the CO supreme court determine this law to be unconstitutional? |

Ugh, this is just terrible:
) ASSAULT WEAPONS ARE NOT SUITABLE FOR SELF DEFENSE AND 16 ARE NOT WELL-SUITED FOR HUNTING, SPORTING, OR ANY PURPOSE OTHER 17 THAN MASS KILLING; Well that's funny. I've never killed anyone or anything. I must be using them wrong? There is no reason why they couldn't be "well suited" for hunting or "sporting" whatever that means. Target shooting? 3-gun competition? AR-15 not suitable for self-defense yet every SWAT and tactical unit as well as many Game Wardens and Park Rangers have one. Page 4, section 2c: (c) IT IS CRITICAL TO LIMIT THE PROSPECTIVE SALE OF ASSAULT 24 WEAPONS AND ACCESSORIES, WHILE PERMITTING EXISTING LEGAL OWNERS 25 TO RETAIN THE ASSAULT WEAPONS THEY CURRENTLY OWN |

I missed that. But yeah its just sales at this point. I must be using all of mine wrong too. What they fail to answer is, the 2nd amendment doesn't say "the right to keep and bear arms to hunt deer or whatever else liberals haven't banned hunting on". That lady who was BEGGING the assembly to "regulate us more", she has to be a plant. She has to be. I doubt she owns a single gun. I hope she COC's herself for that incredibly disgusting testimony. |

"Possession" is only mentioned for rapid fire triggers. Still BS.

The amendments haven’t made it to the text of the bill yet. I think they’ll be in the text as introduced to the house.

Sickening.
Does anyone know where the best price is on a binary trigger for a MP5 clone? |

Quoted: Sickening. Does anyone know where the best price is on a binary trigger for a MP5 clone?

This is crazy.
Pistol - OK for self defense Pistol with threaded barrel - no self-defense purpose What's wild is: The VAST majority of handguns involved in "gun violence" do not have threaded barrels The VAST majority of firearms used in "gun violence" would not be classified as "Assault Weapons" |

On the positive side, there's no way this passes muster at the supreme court. But it will take awhile for it to get there. Hopefully the balance doesn't shift before then.

If they refuse to, SCOTUS can still step in. |

Even then, Illegal laws would still be on the books until SOME court overturns it, right?

I think if the state wants to force the issue, yeah. RMGO has allegedly been preparing a lawsuit for some time anticipating this will pass. But idk details.

View Quote I think this is the thing here, killing sales. It's been said a lot over the years on this site that the left is good at playing the long game, and they will do things like this. This is speculation on my part, but they can easily say "We're letting you keep what you have, and even give them to heirs. You don't have to register them either. We're just banning sales, so we're letting you keep and bear arms, just like the 2nd says." This is exactly how the liberals I know think. People play word games, and twist things however they can to justify things. This is a step by step process. In time, registration will be mandated, then confiscation and criminalization. |

Everything that's wrong with this state is the fault of the Liberal Progressive social experiment.
Remember - it's not an accident. These are smart people executing a smart plan - to stop leading and start ruling. It's just hard for us to understand because we aren't evil. |
