Boulder Co. passes strict assault weapons ban!

https://www.yahoo.com/news/m/b2ddde55-4481-3c01-8cbd-7c402e7d8a1a/ss_boulder-passes-sweeping.html

The city defines assault weapons as “semi-automatic firearms designed with military features to allow rapid spray firing for the quick and efficient killing of humans.”

Included in the definition are “all semiautomatic action rifles with a detachable magazine with a capacity of twenty-one or more rounds,” as well as “semiautomatic shotguns with a folding stock or a magazine capacity of more than six rounds or both.”

Those possessing assault weapons already can keep them under the law, but owning bump stocks and high-capacity magazines will be become illegal in July. Certain law enforcement and military personnel are exempted from the ordinance.

“…to allow rapid spray firing for the quick and efficient killing of humans.”

Okay, I lol’ed at that verbiage. :lol:

They left out “icky”.

Colorado used to be more libertarian and the more they ignore the coming wave of Left leaning the more issues that they will face, tourism and business will fall. Hopefully this will help benefit surrounding states with a better understanding of cause and effect.

Me too.

Lawsuit filed by local gun club and Jon Caldera and a person under 21. THink a gun store too.

Based on 2A issues. THere are also CO ‘Home Rule’ issues with the law.

Odd that their definition of high capacity magazines started at 21 rounds when the state already did a 15 round limit.

State was grandfathered.

They are looking to do tweaks to it later. Don’t know if that is to head off lawsuits or appease the Blooming-idiots.

No shit, with verbiage like that, hope they never see Bob Munden or Jerry Miculek at work or there go revolvers too. Some more of the typical common sense.

Jerry shoot’n a wheel gun is the first thing I thought of when I read that shit.

Some of the fastest pistoleros achieve their feat with Colt SAAs.

I don’t know how Colorado works exactly, but at least here in PA, local ordinances can only be enforced by fines. That means there’s next to zero chance that non-compliance will lead anywhere.

  1. They forgot to include “and has a shoulder thing that goes up.”

  2. I’m not aware of any current firearms that have a “rapid spray firing” feature. I realize this sounds like preamble language rather than part of the operative definition, but perhaps this level of idiocy could be used to show that the people who voted for it lack the basic intelligence needed to engage in legally valid legislative functions.

I don’t know the details, but I picture the Boulder jail as having non-GMO, gluten-free, vegetarian meals with child-labor free bedding materials and uniforms that are all unique with affirming messages written on the tags.

I almost spray fired my keyboard with my drink :slight_smile:

Yeah that was the gent I was thinking of.

For him I surmise single action wheel guns are “assault weapons” lmao.

This law is a great example of the Gun Grab of '18. It is being done at the state and city level. The national level has not borne fruit for them, so they are counting on local progressive collectivist people to push it.

Holy smokes I haven’t seen that guy before. I swear I heard one shot and both balloons broke at the same time. He must have one of those spray features on that SAA.

Local level bans have no teeth.
