I've become quite accustomed to Indiana gun laws.There aren't many.
Can someone give me a quick rundown of CO gun laws? Also the sections of code to look up would be appreciated.
Here is what I believe to be true. Correct me if I'm wrong.
1) CO is an open carry state. No license/permit required to OC.
2) Denver is off limits for any type of carry.
3) Can carry with one in the chamber or under the hammer, OC/CC.
4) Carry in bars okay, CC/OC.
5)No Firearms signs in CO carry force of law.
6) CO has preemption with the exception of Denver.
7) Colorado has a No Duty To Retreat Statue.
Where I really need guidance is in the laws regarding car carry. As I will be OC'ing at all times until I receive my license/permit. In CO is it called a license or permit?
Also, I will be moving to Eastern CO, Byers area if anyone knows where that is. Can you tell me of any ranges/clubs in the area? Specifically ones that host USPSA and Steel Challenge matches.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Edit to add: Also looking for a general firearms discussion board specifically for CO. In Indiana we have ingunowners.com. It is a great site with lots of general firearms info. Definitely worth checking out.
