:iagree: Colorado has had a major influx liberal democrats over the years. Lots of big money moved there for the winter sking and beutiful summers. They live in huge houses in the mountain resort areas, in Boulder and Denver.

Funny, they have 1 person that is concerned about a business (Magpul) leaving the state. I would think there may be a few more than that. If I were living there, I would move my business out of state and its not even a firearm related business.

Can someone explain the rationale behind requiring purchasers to pay for the background check? Who's paying for that now? Does the dealer have to pay the feds for every NICS request he submits, or is that provided by the feds for "free"? If the dealer has to pay for it, then I would argue that the purchaser is already paying for his own NICS as part of the purchase price of the gun.

CO is where the wife wants to retire. I told her CO is out unless she goes alone. She said she's has to think about it... :grumble

It is a very nice place to visit, we have actually discussed moving there before but man. Things like this definitely change the outlook. Disappointing.

Come on down to TX magpul!

This is exactly what will happen to Texas when it flips to Democrat-controlled legislatures.

Carefully note I didn't say "if." We are being destroyed at a glacial pace, but destroyed nonetheless.

Our governor was just in California inviting them to move to Texas. I say we have enough people in Texas now. How about we maintain instead of grow?

Another place I won't live. How sad Colorado is a beautiful state. Much like NY and CA. Liberals mess everything up.

Definitely a disappointment. Had been discussing a house up there with the wife recently. I didnt even think about it when I first read about the bills, but the first thing she asked me was "So I guess the plans for a house in CO are out?".

Gotta love a great, understanding wife!
