I was asked to also post this here.

Please take 30 seconds to sign the petition opposing the proposed GAME Act.

https://c.org/qHDcs5PnyJ

Rep. Jeff Hurd is expected to introduce a bill that would transfer more than 2,000 acres of BLM land northeast of Glenwood Springs to Out of Bounds Ranch.

I’ve hunted this parcel for decades. It is not “unused.” In a unit already dominated by private property, these parcels provide valuable elk habitat and access to connected public land.

This would DELETE over 2,000 acres of prime hunting access in unit 444.

This is not just about hunting, this is about preserving public lands and our rights as citizens. This isn’t a game, but unfortunately, some think otherwise.

Thank you!

hey guys im a 20-year-old, and my birthday is coming up soon wanted to get my first rifle and wanted to ask if I would have any trouble buying a Mini-14 Tactical with this new bill i have my hunters card and will take the class when I turn 21, but this new law got me scared. I won't be able to get one

ps if anyone knows where i can find a Mini-14 Tactical 300 BLK that would be much appreciated

What a joy it is to be a Coloradan. I applied for my “permit” at the end of July, after jumping through some hoops due to my Hunter education course being out of state and now I am still waiting. I have a CHP in Colorado (which apparently means nothing), have my hunter safety course certification from over a decade ago, and here I am still waiting over 1 month later pending sheriff review. How is this program anything less than a completely failure? I’m not trying to get political here, but this is ridiculous.

Anyone complete the classes yet? Whats the process and how long and how much. The lady down at ez pawn told me it was just a written test and thats it but i dont think she even knows.

The Intro starts on page 17. There is no TL;DR version of this Brief, it's already as short as the authors could make it.

Good stuff on page 43 onward, digging into historical tradition vs the current application of "dangerous and unusual". It seems that back in the old days, the test was applied on a case-by-case basis depending on the weapon used, how it was used, and the actual nature of the crime. It was up to the JURORS to decide if it was dangerous/unusual.

Compare that to today's pre-compiled "naughty lists" that allow convictions without the defendant having a chance to challenge the dangerous/unusual accusation. Today, the judge will just instruct the jury as to whether a weapon is dangerous or not and the jury won't put up a fight, they'll just side with the government without ever hearing testimony about the true nature of the weapon and why the prosecution/defense disagree that the weapon is not particularly unusual or dangerous.

Hopefully SCOTUS agrees that it's time to get back to basics. The "feature bans" and restrictions are hopefully on their way into the dark corners of history and remembered as gross authoritarianism. The ATF vertical foregrip rule and the California "featureless" pistol grip (which features a huge shark fin) rule are perfect examples of such authoritarianism... dictating right down to how you can and cannot HOLD the gun in your own hands.

Hey Everyone,
I wanted to see here if anyone in the group has more info about if Harris Park is open at the moment. I know there was a thread about 4 months ago that mentioned it was still open through stage 1 fire ban limits in Park County then. I was just driving up 43A on the way to it and saw a sign saying there are stage 2 fire bans in Park County now and no shooting allowed. I just went ahead and turned around at that point. Anyone know if this is still in effect after the rains of the last week? Is Harris Park open at the moment?

Although the Court continues to believe the Waiting Period Act is constitutional, the Court is bound by the Tenth Circuit’s decision and the law of the case. For the reasons stated in Ortega, the Court denies the Defendants’ MSJ and grants the Plaintiffs’ MSJ.

Likely another 4/6 hour to come before the end of the month. Lmk if there’s questions. All steps and info available on the website.

I’ve seen some posts on here with people saying online gun stores won’t ship to CO anymore. I urge you to email the store and explain that you have your SSF cert and an FFL that will accept and follow all local laws.

Atlantic firearms states they don’t ship to CO on their site but when i sent them my SSF cert they said that’s no problem and they would ship it if i had an FFL that would accept. They responded by email in minutes.

Hello all,

I’m getting so much conflicting information and can’t seem to keep up with new regulations so I was looking for some total clarity.

I’m moving to Denver later this year from Indiana, can I bring my assault rifle? I plan to leave my 25 rd mags behind (unfortunately)

Thanks for any help!

So i'm currently deployed and saw the news about about the CMP selling M14's in January. I'll still be overseas when these go for sale so I can't get the permit. But looking through the bill its exempts "Springfield Armory M1A Standard Issue Rifle".

There is also the C&R exemption; the issue being I could have my wife do the mail in order for CMP but in states that require permits they require proof of carrying that permit.

With the M1A exempt and the C&R exemption do you think that M14's would meet the exemption threshold, or am I SOL till I get back stateside get the permit and hope the CMP still has stock or pay overinflated prices for one on GB.

Has anyone in this sub taken the class for the heck of it?

Was the material worth it to you beyond satisfying the requirement for the permit?

I’ve already hunter’s ed, my CCW and the NRA basic Pistol & Rifle classes…and I already have the firearms that I want for the foreseeable future until this bullshit gets turned over.

Name & Shame:

Sportsman's Fulfillment - All FFL Transfers

Fin & Feather - ALL FFL Transfers

I confirmed with both yesterday, they wont ship handguns, rifles anything. I tried on a deal with SF for a $180 shipped, Ruger LCP, only 6+1 capacity. Probably no taxes either. They're basically embargoing Colorado. Hard ban.

Anyone else see this? We're being abandoned.

[ Removed by Reddit on account of violating the content policy. ]

Filed a eForm 1 for an SBR on Sunday morning. Approval/$0 tax stamp email from ATF arrived Tuesday morning.

Happy about SBR rules and ATF? No.
Happy about recent processing? Heck, yeah.

YMMV, but no complaints about speed here!

Guns For Everyone is packing it in. Doesn't want to participate in Colorado's infringements.

No More Free Classes

Does anyone know of any shops that have a platypus for rent? Love the idea of the gun but want to get hands on with one before dropping 2K and waiting months for it to be built.

25-003 ANNOUNCEMENT. If you were looking to purchase anything that’s on the SSF list, please get a Hunter safety card first. If you were over 50, a veteran, or active duty, Colorado will help you test out online(-(34.95). Texas and New Mexico. Offer online options. The Hunter safety route qualifies you to take the four hour class instead of the 12 hour class. Do not register with the CPW for the SSF authorization until you get your Hunter safety and verify it with CPW.

Every year me and some old army buddies do a reunion to go shooting. This year we’re going to Colorado. We need a good place to go do the following
We’ll probably do some field craft, shooting and NVG shooting. Don’t mind driving across the state if needed. Pics from a trip we did last year.

I know a lot of places we could go near the front range but want to go somewhere more remote

Feel free to DM me, it would be greatly appreciated

I just placed an order with OP for a Daniel Defense MK18 upper and received this response:

OP has always been a shit show in terms of shipping, but their prices were good enough to make up for it. I guess I’m completely done with them now.

I have my late uncle's army duffel, and while I have no use for it anymore, I can't bring myself to throw it away. I want to repurpose the material, and I have a notion to have it made into shooting bags and maybe a holster for a revolver. I'm sure I could learn how to sew and do this stuff myself, but I'd rather hand the material over to someone who isn't going to butcher it. Does anyone know of a place that does work like this? There is a local place that I've used to repair and modify some backpacks that I'm going to call tomorrow, but I'd love to hear if anyone has any recommendations. I'd also like to hear of any other ideas for what I could do with the material. Maybe a rifle sling? World's least comfortable pair of underwear? Scope cover?
