Colorado Semiauto Law Takes Effect Saturday

Colorado's Senate Bill 25-003 takes effect August 1, requiring an eligibility card from the county sheriff and proof of in-person firearms training for purchases of common semiautomatic firearms. Gun store staff are already seeing pre-deadline rushes, and the state's new application portal is drawing criticism for being difficult to navigate. Buyers should start the process well before heading to the counter.
