Colorado lawmakers are one step closer to passing SB25-003, a sweeping gun ban on semiautomatic rifles, shotguns and pistols. Last Friday, the Colorado Senate passed SB25-003. This bill initially called for a ban of virtually any semiautomatic firearm with a “detachable magazine.” But as it moved through the Senate, it was softened up with some amendments, including exceptions to allow for hunters to keep buying some semiautomatic firearms, such as semi-auto shotguns for waterfowl hunting, etc.
