Frequently Asked Questions

What is SB 25-003 and why is it controversial in Colorado?

SB 25-003 is a Colorado bill that proposes to ban certain detachable magazines, which many view as an assault weapons ban. Proponents frame it as a magazine capacity limit. It's controversial because it significantly impacts the rights of law-abiding citizens to own common semi-automatic firearms.

What are the new FFL regulations going into effect in Colorado on July 1st?

Starting July 1st, Colorado FFLs must obtain a state-issued license in addition to their federal one. This introduces redundant requirements and inspections, allows state audits of federal forms, and gives the state power to revoke an FFL's license, impacting business operations and product availability.

How will the 6.5% excise tax on firearms affect consumers in Colorado?

The 6.5% excise tax, effective April 1st, will increase the cost of firearms significantly. Combined with existing federal and state sales taxes, consumers could face nearly 25% in taxes on firearms, making them less affordable and potentially harming the industry.

What actions can Coloradans take to oppose new gun control legislation?

Concerned citizens can attend rallies, provide testimony at legislative hearings (in person or virtually), contact their elected officials via email and phone, and share information to raise awareness. Supporting pro-2A organizations is also crucial for effective advocacy.

What is HB 21-133 and how does it impact ammunition sales in Colorado?

HB 21-133 aims to regulate ammunition and handloading components. It could restrict direct-to-consumer ammunition shipments, potentially requiring transfers through FFLs, and may increase shipping costs and prices due to new packaging requirements and regulations.
