DENVER (KDVR) — A bill seeking to change the requirements for purchasing a semiautomatic gun in Colorado will be discussed in the House on Tuesday.
In February, the bill passed the senate 19 to 15, but not without strong push back.
Senate Bill 25-003, “Semiautomatic Firearms & Rapid-Fire Devices,” has been amended 15 times. This bill would ban the sale and manufacturing of many semiautomatic guns in Colorado.
One of the important amendments would allow guns with a detachable magazine to be purchased only if buyers complete about 12 hours of training courses. If you have a hunter’s safety certification, gun owners would only need a four-hour class.
