That said, if it does pass my call for a new home is Arizona. Lots of gun-friendly laws and people here.
Heck, we'd throw them a Party and a Parade!
Colorado ain't what I remember.

another one bites the dust...
JOIN THE NRA, or be defeated.
JOIN GUN OWNERS OF AMERICA
JOIN 2ND AMENDMENT FOUNDATION
Jerry Sonnenberg has fought hard for Rural Colorado, but with the latest gerrymandering scheme Redistricting the Democrats foisted upon the People of Colorado, Ag-based Representation is a whisper in the maelstrom.

Colorado suffered a lot of liberals moving into the state, and then this happens.
Colorado is just another libber state with John Denver & Glenn Campbell whistling and yodeling all their touchy feely happy songs..[:(!] l flew into Denver Airport a couple times and had the hardest time finding anyone that spoke English. l heard more English in Frankfort Airport or Hong Kong than Denver Airport [V]
Then you didn't see much of Colorado, I imagine.
Glen Campbell was born in Arkansas, performed at the 1980 Republican National Convention and counted among his close friends, Charleton Heston and Ronald Reagan. To the best of my knowledge, he never lived in Colorado.
John Henry Deutchendorf aka Denver, on the other hand...well...I guess we gotta claim him.
As for flying into DIA, I've only done it once, but everybody I had contact with spoke English.
Both out House and Senate are Democrat Controlled and out Governor is just another Dem. I did the best I could about that, but I'm only one vote in Rural Colorado.
Maybe next time you're here, you can take the time to learn something about the fine people in Colorado instead of just talking out of your *.
I hope it does not pass. I have been involved in moving factories from one state to another. Just completed one such move for my employer. It is expensive, always hits production and there are always at least some employees who get screwed.
That said, if it does pass my call for a new home is Arizona. Lots of gun-friendly laws and people here.

If the flag just wasn't quite so reminiscent of the NVA flag.
Use the ruger and S&W quick links and tell your reps!
Colorado CAlorado should not be this damn liberal!!!!!
Fixed it ferya!
Col---l remember crossing into Wyoming was a different world. Even the WallyWorlds up there sell reloading stuff . South Carolina will welcome you and your guns Col [^]
The WalMart here sells reloading stuff. Or it did when it could keep up with the demand. The fact that the shelves haven't been stocked with something else gives me hope that, once the pipeline opens back up, they will again.
Been a long time since I was as far South and East as South Carolina, but I really loved it.[8D]
Magpul will become an Arizona company !!
just borrowing it for now.........., OK ??
Background checks on private sales is a good idea and as long as it does not involve back door registration I realy don't care. It will not stop any criminal from getting a gun. These laws will not realy bother law abiding gun owners much, if any. It may cost a few bucks to run a background check but with modern computer systems cost should be nominal.
"Background checks" is registration -- particularly with computerized records.
All FFL records are open to review by the ATF at any time (it's particularly easy for them to copy all of an FFL's records when they are all computerized). All FFL records are turned over to the ATF when an FFL closes up shop.
If all transactions on firearms are required to be recorded through FFLs, you have effective universal registration of all firearms -- at least all the firearms in law-abiding citizen's hands (the criminals won't be complying with such laws).
Those seeking to destroy the 2nd Amendment -- and make the population unarmed so they can force their socialist nightmare on us -- know that the logistics of universal registration and confiscation can't be done overnight.
There are just too many guns out there, and too many people who would resist any outright act described as "registration." The solution they've come up with to achieve the registration they want (so they'll know where the firearms are, so eventual confiscation will be easier) is to carry out registration deceptively.
They call it "universal background checks" -- instead of "universal registration" -- and try to suggest it is a "reasonable, common sense" step in controlling "gun violence."
"Universal background checks" will do nothing to reduce or limit gun violence -- since the criminals will not be complying. It is simply a ploy to get a record of all the firearms owned by law-abiding citizens.
The "Rhonda Fields" are running the country....women are treading on gun rights....Do they need to be in the position?[:o)]
You are right ! Take a hard look at Emily's List a PAC devoted solely to getting female democrats into office. They are aligned with 'America Votes' (see my signature line), The Sierra Club, NAACP, The Brady Campaign and the ugly list goes on.
You bet they have an anti-gun agenda in this country.
As long as this country keeps electing the Diane Feinsteins, the Nancy Pelosi's, the Barbara Boxers and so on and so on, this is never going to end.

Chris

Our society is moving steadily to a one gender nation...women want to be men and men are being emasculated and wimpified all the time. It starts in school and continues on televison where men are portrayed as ignorant jerks and women as the problem solvers.
Soma anyone???
Colorado is not liberal, Denver and the Front Range has been over run by liberals and the republican politicians in Colorado are experts at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Every where except Front Range(and a couple liberal enclaves, Aspen-Vail type places) is pretty conservative and very pro gun.
Sad day in Colorado, all four gun control measures passed house and on their way to senate where they will likely pass.
BTW- Colonel, after spending 2 years in S Carolina I think I can say I doubt you would want to do more than visit occasionally.

Well, the grass is always greener, I guess.
It is sometimes difficult to imagine that politicians can be that stupid. Fedreal law already requires background checks on all internet sales. You have to go through an FFL to get a modern gun shiped to you. Any magazine limit is a waste of time...
They are not stupid; they are Machiavellian ("characterized by subtle or unscrupulous cunning, deception, expediency, or dishonesty: He resorted to Machiavellian tactics in order to get ahead.")in order to stay in power. Logic and common sense aren't part of the calculus when it comes to passing "feel good" laws.
Colorado has been CaliFORNICATEd. [:(!][:(!]
Tell me about it!!! I was born there and thought I would never leave, BUT in 99 when I retired I could see what was happening and moved to AK!
Everyone of those people I talked to said they were moving from CA were moving to get away from all the craziness, but they brought it with them!!![:(!]
