aimed squarely at gun enthusiasts and competitive shooters, which are abundant in Colorado. Statewide law enforcement vehemently opposed the capacity limit, which was passed by Bloomberg's people over LE objections, and most sheriff's departments have flatly refused to enforce it. That piece of idiocy ended Hickenlooper's hope of ever being a viable presidential candidate, which is a shame.

There was a bipartisan effort last year to at least raise the limit to 30 rounds, but a fundy lobbyist with NAGR or somesuch killed it.
