Bill Summary
CONCERNING INCREASING THE LEGAL AGE TO PURCHASE A FIREARM TO TWENTY-ONE YEARS OF AGE, WITH LIMITED EXCEPTIONS.
AI Summary
This bill aims to increase the minimum age to purchase a firearm in Colorado to 21 years of age, with limited exceptions. It defines "firearm" to include any weapon that can expel a projectile by the action of an explosive, as well as the frame or receiver of a firearm. The bill prohibits licensed gun dealers from selling firearms to individuals under 21, and prohibits those under 21 from purchasing firearms, except for active members of the U.S. Armed Forces, peace officers, and those certified by the P.O.S.T. board. The bill also establishes criminal penalties for violations of these provisions.
