Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.

Legislation that sought to ban so-called "assault weapons" died early Thursday morning after four Democrats joined the Colorado House Judiciary Committee's Republicans to indefinitely postpone the bill on a 8-5 vote.
Shortly after midnight, Democrat Reps. Lindsey Daugherty, Bob Marshall, Said Sharbini and Marc Snyder voted down the legislation along with their Republican colleagues after a pair of amendments on bump stocks and rapid-fire trigger activators were lost.
The hearing, which kicked off Wednesday morning, drew a record 522 witnesses seeking to testify.

One piece of good news.
Just a pause on the road to registration and confiscation.
The left will use this as a rallying cry to elect even more hard core gun banners to boost their votes in the chamber.
The GOP will do nothing, as usual.
The other 4 bills have passed committee and are waiting to be signed- the most insidious is the rollback of protections from lawsuits against manufacturers, distributors and dealers.
True leftists are determined to gain total control over everyone's lives. Government is their religion and like all zealots, they are impossible to dissuade.
My warning would be...
Gun owners now have another year to plan... get what you want before next legislative session...
My guess is that this is more of a distraction to take our minds off of all the other bad things they did this legislative session to give the illusion of a win. It's only a matter of time before the unconstitutional red flag law is weaponized against the "undesirables" and the restrictions on private property use in rural areas along with their land use proposals to urbanize rural areas impact us all. Colorado is also joining in on the bankrupt the firearms industry band wagon through frivolous lawsuits that don't meet the requirements for proximate cause.
I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

Seeing that all gun sales in Colorado have to be approved by the CBI I'm not sure how a gun shop / FFL could ever lose a suit against them.
It's not about winning; it's about legal fees bankrupting the industry by forcing them to defend themselves against litigation.
