According to a post on that org’s Facebook pg, 21-round capacity mags are legal in Denver, but 15-round or under mags are legal in the state. How does that work? Do municipalities’ laws take precedence over the state’s laws? Just wondering.

Bring a few stingers for the drones. (No, not the ones working in the Capital building...though the idea is also tempting.)

30 round magazines are STANDARD CAPACITY.

We need to start setting the language of the debate. The Left almost always sets the language and therefore we are always starting our fight from a disadvantage.

Stop this “high capacity” garbage.

At Midnight on July 1st, 2013, the unenforceable and unconstitutional Colorado ban on magazines that hold more than 15 rounds... goes into effect.

Just wondering.
Wouldn't waiting for midnight July 4th have been more dramatic?

Once the law is in effect, could someone incorporate a permanent choke so that a standard magazine could only hold, say, 14 rounds, but would look identical to a standard magazine on the outside?

The law states that if it can have more than the certain number of rounds, or is “readily convertible” for more rounds, then it is illegal. But a permanent choke in a single magazine creates a problem for the authorities, if the only way to tell is by disassembling the magazine.

Importantly, the gun grabbers are very appearance oriented, such as with “assault rifles”, but there is nothing in the law that requires standard or choked magazines to be identified as such. This means that to search your magazine is difficult, because there is no probable cause to suggest it is *not* choked if you say it is.
