Bill language

"Removable magazines" is language in the bill.

PR57 | 5.7mm Rotary Barrel Pistol | 20 Round Capacity

Unique & light. The PR57 is our 1st rotating barrel firearm and the lightest 5.7 pistol on the market. Its slim, streamlined design make it perfect for edc, and turning heads at the range.

The above is legal. The below is not.

Ruger-5.7® Centerfire Pistol

Is that making us all safer somehow?

Is the Ruger 57 gas-operated?

Nope. Delayed blowback.

Nope. Delayed blowback.

So it would be illegal...just reading (and rereading) the bill language, many semi-auto handguns are recoil-operated and don't fall under their umbrella.

Yes, which is my point.... The ruger is illegal. The keltec is legal. The capacity and how they operate is largely the same. No removable magazine on the keltec...

I wrote CO off with CA years ago ...vote with your feet and get while you can.

It's a Keltec, it's no danger to anyone

I used my only semiautomatic, gas-cycled detachable box magazine just this past month for my first hunt of ‘25. It’s got a 16” barrel, low recoil and just right for 30yd brush shots and 200yd fields.
I bought this after strong consideration of different bolt action scout-type rifles. Problem with those besides the (over)price is not all came with iron sights or the means to install irons. Heavier recoil and not modular as in changing calibers would be
$ barrel+gunsmith labor and permanent.
So please, Colorado, don’t do a Canada. These MSR platforms are enjoyed by many of us. California and Massachusetts came up with a way to accept these rifles if they have an attached magazine so Colorado can do likewise.
