Colorado SB25-003 AWB 2025

[TSU_Archer]

I did a general search and couldn’t see that anyone has posted about this yet. Maybe they did, my apologies if it has but here is a little something I wrote up about this crazy bill in Colorado. Feel free to share this to anyone you know in Colorado. I typed it in a way that it should be easily shareable and copy/paste.




Colorado gun activist are attempting to push the most aggressive and tyrannical gun bill in Colorado history and is considered one of the worst measures ever proposed in US history.

If SB25 is passed it will ban 99% of firearms commonly owned and purchased in this state. It’s not just sporting rifles, it’s semi-automatic shot guns and every semi-automatic pistol. Everything from a semi-auto shotgun that is gas operated to your Smith & Wesson .9mm that a single mother carries for protection. This will wipe out gun stores and leave our future generations defenseless.

I understand we all have busy schedules but my hopes would be this would hit close to home for you and would do the following:

#1 Please go to this link and sign the petition. https://action.rmgo.org/1927_AssaultWeaponsBan.aspx

#2 Share the heck out of this or something similar with anyone you know who would help defeat this. We have got to let our brothers, sisters, moms, dads, children, coworkers, etc know about this.

#3 Please consider signing up for the public hearing testimony scheduled for Jan 28th. You can do a written letter if you have no free time, online testimony or if you are free they are always accepting in person testimonies at the capital. https://www.leg.state.co.us/clics/clics2025A/commsumm.nsf/NewSignIn.xsp

Below is the direct link to Rocky Mountain Gun Owners for all the necessary links and information for calling representatives, petitions, hearings and information on bills being proposed. https://linktr.ee/rmgo_official?fbc...9vbFGfBMr-yMU6Bs2g_aem_OEPSU7_bgUP38MjsOXg5TQ


I feel more than ever this bill and this fight is imperative that we win. Please do not sit back on this.

Any chance this passes? Don't they try this every year?

I am opposed to this bill. But in the spirit of transparency, is that statement above correct?

It looks like it bans semi-auto with detachable magazines. That would not include most semi-auto shotguns (i.e., Benelli 12ga for duck hunting), would it?

Also, certainly revolvers, bolt action guns, and semi-auto shotguns (without detachable mags) make up >1% of gun purchases in CO, right?

I was looking to retire in the Ft Collin’s area in the next few years but ruled it out CO as they have really leaned left after legalization of weed. Feel bad for you guys.

Yeah I revised the post, what I ment to say is anything gas operated which does include a great deal of shot guns and other rifles that don’t even take a detachable magazine. It’s an incredibly aggressive bill.

But I don’t think that’s true, is it?

The bill defines a "specified semiautomatic firearm" as a semiautomatic rifle or semiautomatic shotgun with a detachable magazine or a gas-operated semiautomatic handgun with a detachable magazine.

So a gas-driven semi-auto shotgun isn’t included as it’s currently written.

And even if it was, that’s not 99% of firearms sold in CO.

Again, I’m strongly opposed to the bill. But I do want us to be accurate in our depiction of it.

Hearing has just started, link below if you're interested in listening.

Senate State, Veterans, & Military Affairs [Jan 28, 2025]

Duration is only an estimate.

Seems like ar15s and about all semi auto handguns would be banned. Strange that the more gun laws CO passes the more violent crime we have. It's almost like we are importing criminals to live in our cities.

From Ian at Rocky Mountain Gun Owners - Official Page
Howdy Folks,

After talking to our leadership, we’ve come up with a plan moving forward, and I need you guys to help me out executing this part. I don’t like to act with haste, but we could see this on the floor any day, so we need to act now.

1.) This is the list of Senators who we need to vote no in order to kill this thing. Please email, call and try to meet in person at the Capitol and instruct your customers to do the same. Be firm but respectful in your urge for them to vote no. I have listed them in the order of priority, but we need all 6 votes to kill the bill in the Senate.

2.) Finally, if you have not given to RMGO yet this year, I get it times are hard with the new regulations, but we need to run program like we did last year, specifically our patch through calls and text messages programs— which we found to be the most effective. we are already running these programs, but we are running out of cash to keep them up. We cannot do that without your help and the help of grassroots activist around the state.

If you are able, give here: https://secure.anedot.com/rocky-mountain-gun-owners/donatenow_homepage

If we work together, we might just be able to beat this thing! I really appreciate what you guys are doing (and will do) for gun owners to secure our second amendment freedom to buy semi automatic firearms. "

CO dems at it again with gun bans

For F sake... Day 1 of the new session and the CO dems propose to ban all detachable magazine semi-auto guns with a bunch of Dem sponsors on the bill. Keep in mind ALL the dem senators voted against increasing penalties for firearm theft and possession of a stolen firearm a bit back. It was...
