I hold a Texas CHL and Washington non-resident CPL, so I expect no difficulties carrying concealed or open in Colorado over the next two weeks. I will be staying in Boulder the bulk of the time, travelling to Basalt for a 4-day weekend, and spending some time in Rocky Mountain National Park.
I understand that in the national parks, I must leave my guns behind (or at least not be noticed) until February 2010. Aside from that, I should be free to carry open or concealed anywhere I go outside of Denver and certain (marked) municipally-owned buildings.
Are there any other restrictions I need to be aware of that aren't obvious from the flyer at handgunlaw.us? I am a supporter of open carry, though not certain I would open carry without a second firearm concealed. For my friends' comfort level, I think I will be primarily carrying concealed to avoid LEO interference, but think I will be doing a bit of OC when alone just to see what response I get.
If anyone is in the Boulder or Basalt area, feel free to suggest a meetup, as I'll be kicking around on vacation while I'm here. I think the folks I'm staying with will have me busy most evenings, but I try to be flexible.
Lastly, out of curiousity, do we have many fly fishermen on this board? I've been contemplating safe carry on the water. If I fall in the Frying Pan, I'll feel pretty dumb as I clean my Kimber.
Thanks to any and all responders, I'll be checking periodically even after I'm in CO.
