Power Struggles and Ideological Clashes: A Look into the Political Landscape
In the heart of Colorado Springs, a new gun store is set to open its doors. Teddy Collins, a former resident of Texas, has chosen the city for its safety, positive living reputation, and conservative disposition.
Colorado Springs, known for its picturesque landscapes and vibrant community, has attracted Collins' attention as the ideal location for his upcoming business venture. The city's reputation as a safe haven and its conservative leanings align with Collins' values, making it an attractive choice for his gun store.
However, the gun store's opening comes amidst ongoing discussions about firearm regulations in Colorado. In response to the 2012 Aurora movie theater massacre, Colorado enacted a 15-round limit on firearm magazines earlier in the decade. Yet, as of mid-2025, there are no current Colorado state laws specifically limiting magazine capacity in Colorado Springs.
While Colorado does regulate firearm possession and storage, there are no statewide magazine capacity restrictions, and no recent legal updates suggest that Colorado Springs or local authorities have imposed magazine capacity limits distinct from state law. Local authorities in Colorado do have the authority to regulate firearms in designated public properties by posting signs that prohibit firearms, but this generally does not extend to magazine capacity limits.
Recent state legislative activity, such as SB 24-131, focuses more on issues like secure firearm storage in vehicles and places off-limits for firearms, rather than magazine capacity restrictions. As such, magazine capacity limits are not currently part of Colorado Springs gun regulations, and there is no recent legislation indicating changes to this effect.
