To Our Members, Friends, and Supporters,
After a full day of powerful testimony from gun owners, firearms enthusiasts, small business owners, and Second Amendment advocates at the Colorado State Capitol, SB003 was pushed through in the late evening on a 3-2 vote—long after the decision had already been made behind closed doors. Despite our community showing up in overwhelming numbers in opposition, the 11 PM cutoff silenced countless voices who came to defend their rights.
This was not a fair hearing—it was a predetermined agenda-driven decision that disregarded the voices of responsible gun owners in the Denver Metro and Lakewood areas.
SB003 is just one of many legislative efforts aimed at restricting the rights of law-abiding gun owners, and its passage highlights a disturbing trend: the voices of responsible citizens are being ignored in favor of political agendas. The opposition to this bill was massive, yet the rushed vote in the late hours of the night proves that the decision was made long before testimony was even heard.
This bill affects small businesses, gun ranges, firearm retailers, and law-abiding citizens who depend on their Second Amendment rights for protection, sport, and business operations.
Why SB003 Matters to Gun Owners in Colorado
SB003 is more than just another piece of legislation—it is part of a broader attempt to limit access to firearms, impose stricter regulations, and make it more difficult for responsible gun owners to exercise their rights. This bill has major implications for:
- Gun ranges in Denver and Lakewood – Stricter regulations could impact business operations, class offerings, and public accessibility.
- Firearm safety training programs – Many gun safety courses and concealed carry classes are at risk of new restrictions.
- Small firearm retailers – Increased regulations could make it harder for local gun stores to operate, impacting not just business owners but also customers looking to make lawful purchases.
- Second Amendment rights in Colorado – This bill sets a dangerous precedent for future anti-gun legislation that could further restrict lawful gun ownership.
But This Isn’t the End – It’s a Call to Action
We refuse to be defeated. We refuse to be ignored. This decision affects law-abiding citizens, firearm enthusiasts, self-defense advocates, and small business owners who operate gun ranges, firearm retailers, and training facilities in Denver, Lakewood, and throughout Colorado.
Now, more than ever, we must stand together, speak louder, and fight harder. This isn’t just about SB003—it’s about protecting the future of gun rights, firearm safety training, and access to shooting sports in Colorado.
