Sorry for interrupting with a not-quite-hunting post but so few drag through the Political Forum that I thought this might be the best place to get a word out.

If you live in Colorado there are recall petitions for the removal of at least four of the legislators that helped pass the restrictive gun laws in that state. If you are a resident their districts and support the 2nd Ammendment this is your chance to help!

Colorado Recalls

Go for it, guys and good luck.
Bear in Fairbanks

I've already signed the 1 in my district. We are trying to recall Mike McLachlan.

I'm hoping someone puts a proposal up to amend our constitution to repeal these gun laws and make any further attempt unconstitutional in Colorado, I believe they're already unconstitutional as far as the U.S. is concerned but that doesn't seem to bother the legislators of either the state or the U.S. Congress.

Thanks for posting the link, any help to get the word out is what we need.
Chuck I saw a tiny blurb on facebook that El Paso County Sheriff Terry Makeeta has, I think, 48 of the 61 county Sherrifs on board to start a suit against the State. We need to support them as well.

I really hope that real Coloradans can step up and get the folks that supported such legislation out of office.

Give them a boot in the Ass its the American way!!!!

Yeah, I signed the recall petition for McLachlan as well here in Pagosa. These stupid, lying sacks of shit need to go find another state to screw up.

Go get 'em fellas! Take Colorado back from the commie bastards!

Unfortunately, none of them are in my district. But then, the representative from my district voted against all the laws. But if you live in one of these districts you damned sure need to sign off on these petitions.

Wyoming gets gun company's attention






















CASPER, Wyo. — The phenomenon Robert Jensen is observing is unprecedented.

Magpul Industries Corp. and other firearms manufacturers and firearm accessories companies in Colorado and Connecticut are debating picking up everything and crossing state lines, possibly even moving to Wyoming, to find a friendlier political environment.

While Magpul executives continue to evaluate where they want to move, Jensen, the CEO of the Wyoming Business Council, said he's received calls from other firearms manufacturers in Colorado and Connecticut. He declined to name the companies.

“My guess is it would be over the next 12 months (that) we would hear and see more about companies relocating,” he said. “I think it’s imminent, but I don’t think it’s going to happen in the next month or two.”

A corporate move requires more than just opening a new office, Jensen said. There are licenses and permits to obtain, executives and their families who need to be sold on the move, a possible new labor force to hire and evaluation of which state has the friendliest business environment.

“Expansions happen all the time, and we’re always talking to people about expanding here,” said Jensen. “But wholesale changes in their location are very, very rare.”

But the firearm manufacturing industry is, pardon the pun, under fire.

“This is a different set of circumstances, all driven by a policy change by the political leadership of a state, primarily,” Jensen said. “So that’s unusual. Those companies are doing business in those states for lots of reasons. So without some triggering event like this legislative change, you just don’t normally get people to pick up and move.”

On Monday, Magpul said on its Facebook page that it will announce which state it is moving to when details are finalized, following up on a previous promise to move when the Colorado Legislature passed a law limiting ammunition magazines to 15 rounds.

The Facebook message said that it is manufacturing PMAG magazines outside Colorado.

According to the Associated Press, PMAGs are magazines that can hold 10 to 30 rounds.

A spokesman from the Erie, Colo.-based company did not return a message from the Star-Tribune.

Jensen said the company has not decided whether it will move to Wyoming or one of the other states that have extended welcomes.

The PMAG production may be temporary, Jensen said.

“It’s my understanding they were looking for a place to outsource their production of some of their products until they can make a decision on where they want to relocate their manufacturing,” he said. “That’s at least the state of the conversation as we’re in it with them right now.”

Legislatures in Colorado and Connecticut have stiffened gun regulation after shootings that left numerous people dead, including in an Aurora, Colo., movie theater and a Newtown, Conn., school.

State Rep. Bunky Loucks, R-Casper, has been the Wyoming Legislature’s representative to Magpul. He said that his contact at the company was Todd Neiberger, the chief financial officer.

Loucks last reached out to Neiberger on April 16, but the CFO hasn't replied in more than a month, he said.

Loucks was hoping the company would relocate to Casper — he even found Casper residents who said they’d be willing to talk to Magpul about a building and financing. But the company indicated it was more interested in Cheyenne, he said.

“When I talked to Todd, they honestly were really interested in Cheyenne because several of the people, including himself, live in Fort Collins,” he said. “We have state employees who live in Fort Collins. It’s a beautiful community, and they drive 40 miles or whatever it is.”

There are some of us in Colorado Springs (within Morse's district) that would like to sign the petition, but have not heard where? Anyone give us some help on that?

Prof
I checked the movements Facebook page and they show a recall signature taker outside the Shootin Den on fillmore. If he's not still there the Shootin Den will know something.

If you can't stand behind the 2nd Ammendent , then please stand in front.

Kick them out!

Good luck!

I don't live in one of those districts or I would have signed a petition in a heartbeat. I hope my neighbors do the same!

Good luck guys. Let your voice be heard loud and clear.

Our county here just passed a county ordinance enforcing the 2nd amendment and stating that no state or federal entity shall infringe upon it, nor may they enforce the laws they pass that are anti-gun in this county. We'll see how that works but at least it's a start.

Pagosa
That is a great start!
I'd like to get my hands on a copy of that ordinance and get it in front of our El Paso county commissioners, however I have my doubts that they would push it through. Way too many limp wristed socialists here but I can only hope they would look at it.
Our City is now allowing City employees concealed carry on the job now so thats promising.

Snellstrom,
I will see what I can do. I don't get along with the co comm's very well, you know the high and mighty deciding what I can and can't do on my property thing but I'll try.

Wingnut---You seeing any turkeys over there. I'm hunting down @ Pagosa Jct----slim pickens.

I know exactly what you mean, but if you can I need to get my hands on it or direct me to a copy of it somehow.
Thanks
