Is It Legal to Open Carry in Colorado
Open carry is legal in Colorado but I have some reservations about it with the current legal climate. One of the things we’ve seen happen around the country is that when carrying open in places like Walmart or the grocery store we’re seeing criminals take guns from people and then the DA or the local jurisdiction charge that gun owner with negligence when he loses the gun to the criminal. Of course, carrying in an open space like the mountains or a river trail or some walking trail is generally accepted practice. Colorado has some areas that it’s illegal to carry open and you can be arrested namely Denver and Denver County. It is not true that open carry deters crime. It is just the opposite. Open carry attracts crime to you and makes you a target both for police and criminals. It tends to make the public nervous and attracts too much attention to the open carrier.

I have no experience with a gun can I take your class

Yes….you actually have an advantage over people who have handled guns all their lives. Most long-time gun owners have become complacent and are not as safe as they could be. A new person usually does not have those pesky bad habits that experienced owners sometimes have.

Are Colorado citizens required to register their firearms?

NO. In fact, state law prohibits firearms registration by local or state government (the Federal Brady Act is another matter, though that’s not “claimed” to be registration). Colorado has no waiting period for a gun purchase at this time.

Is it legal for a private citizen to sell a firearm to another private citizen?

YES, as of July of 2013 all firearm sales (transfers) in Colorado must have a background check. There are some exceptions with some (not all) family members. Check with your local firearms dealer to be sure. For your own safety, you should always have a dealer do a background check on the transfer of a firearm.
