Another Carry Question?
I almostalways buy my guns new from a dealer, now that I bought a couple of used ones from an individual, do I have to register them before I can carry them legal? One of my buddies says yes, the other says no. Any help?

That sounds pretty ridiculous to me, but you have to check your facts first. Search the Colorado state code for keywords like "conceal" or "concealed" and read the applicable carry laws.
Are you required to register any of your firearms in the state? Seems that if you have the permit to carry, and don't need to register a new pistol bought from a dealer, then you wouldn't have towith anything else. Does this friend of yours knowing anything about guns and carry, or is he being an armchair expert? Just look for yourself so you don't run into trouble down the road.

Check out packing.org, they heve pretty up-to-date information. Some states allow you to carry any handgun with your permit and others require you to register your gun and only carry that particular weapon.

No you do not have to register any firearms in Colorado and the Colorado carry permit is valid for any weapon you should choose to carry, be it your handguns, knives, mace, tazers, etc...

CARRYING
It is unlawful to carry a firearm concealed on or about one’s person without a permit, except for a person in his or her own dwelling, place of business, or on property owned or controlled by him or her.
A permit is not required to carry a handgun where carrying firearms is legal, if the handgun is not concealed. A handgun is not considered concealed if it is in the possession of a person who is in a private automobile or other private means of conveyance who is carrying it for a legal use, or the handgun is in the possession of a person who is legally engaged in hunting activities within the state.
Exempt from the requirement of a permit to carry a concealed handgun are peace officers of Colorado, U.S. probation officers, law enforcement officers ......
Looks to me like the answer is NO, you don't have to register a handgun in Colorado. Or any other firearm. But if you have a concealed carry permit, I guess you'd call that a form of registration???? At least the state knows you have a handgun, if you got a permit.....

From what I gather, there is NO requirement, nor any mechanism, to register any gun of any kind, imposed by the State of Colorado regardless of how or where you buy it.
