Frequently Asked Questions

What firearms does Colorado's proposed 2024 semi-auto ban target?

Colorado's proposed ban targets firearms accepting magazines with features like adjustable stocks, muzzle brakes, or foregrips. This includes many shotguns, lever-action rifles with threaded barrels, and pistols with threaded barrels. Specific models like AR-15s, SCARs, and CZ Scorpions are explicitly named.

What are the penalties for possessing banned firearms in Colorado after the owner's death?

If banned firearms are not transferred correctly after the owner's death, they can be seized by the state. Heirs found possessing them could face significant fines, starting at $250,000 for a first offense and escalating to $500,000 for subsequent offenses.

Why is citizen participation important for fighting Colorado's firearm ban?

Citizen participation is vital because organizations like the NRA often send only a few representatives. A mass presence at the Colorado State Capitol demonstrates broad opposition to restrictive bills, informing representatives that a general majority is against the legislation that infringes on freedoms.

What other firearm-related legislation is being proposed in Colorado?

Besides the semi-auto ban, Colorado is considering bills for credit card tracking of gun purchases, creating a backdoor gun registry, and SB24-131, which bans firearms in 'sensitive places' like parks and churches, with potential to expand to any public area.
