Like the cuckoo bird who lays its eggs in other birds\u2019 nests, Colorado\u2019s leftward lurch began some 20 or so years ago and has accelerated steadily ever since, fueled by disaffected cuckoo birds from California, Illinois, New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and other assorted pockets of liberal mania, who laid their eggs liberally across their newly usurped state.<\/p>

To be fair, several formerly conservative states have suffered this fate to varying degrees, but Coloradan transplants have transformed the state with a vengeance. For example, in the 2020 national election, Proposition 115 would have \u201cprohibited abortions in Colorado beyond 22 weeks, the average point of fetal viability, except in cases to protect the life of the mother.\u201d That measure lost by 18 points, so Colorado remains one of only seven states where abortions remain legal up until the moment of birth.<\/p>\n

But nothing epitomizes Colorado\u2019s proud, progressive creds like SB25-003 —\u00a0the sweeping gun control law that hit the ground on August 1, 2026.<\/p>\n

In the early 1980s one could drive a bit outside of Denver towards the hills and pass speed limit signs adorned with bullet holes. Now, however, SB25-003 prohibits<\/p>\n

\n

activity involving semiautomatic firearms, and, in connection therewith, prohibiting the manufacture, distribution, transfer, sale, and purchase of specified semiautomatic firearms, classifying a device that increases the rate of fire of a semiautomatic firearm as a dangerous weapon, and making an appropriation.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Specifically, \u201c[T]he act 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 <\/em>(emphasis added).\u201d<\/p>\n

This bill does not represent an outright ban; gosh, that might violate the 2nd Amendment. Rather, there is now a permit-to-purchase process that law-abiding Coloradans must complete before buying a restricted firearm, the mechanics of which are outlined by the Colorado State Shooting Association (CSSA):\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n

Applicants must obtain a third-party background check, submit an application and supporting documents to a sheriff, pay government fees, locate an approved trainer, complete at least 12 hours of in-person instruction over at least two days, pass a written examination with a minimum passing score of 90 percent, and have personal information submitted to a public database.<\/p>

Even after completing that process, they must undergo another background check at the point of sale and wait another three days before taking possession. [snip]<\/p>\n

The state had roughly 16 months to prepare for the law. Despite that, Colorado Parks and Wildlife did not provide instructors with the mandatory curriculum until the 20th of July, less than two weeks before the requirements took effect. [snip]<\/p>\n

Applicants have been left trying to determine which vendors can conduct the required background check, where the results should be sent, whether an in-person appearance is required, and whether their sheriff will accept an application at all.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Many county sheriffs\u2019 offices are unable to explain the process, let alone execute it, and many cannot supply or refer an approved trainer for the required courses.<\/p>\n

Pity the poor firearms vendors; they must feel like they\u2019re on an endangered species list.<\/p>\n

The chaos and confusion are all by design, of course. The state cares not how much time and taxpayer money they will have to spend defending this bill in court, nor do they really care if some portions are overturned — they can always come back with a slightly amended law. They have the upper hand, by God, and their will be done.<\/p>
