Jared Polis signed into law eight bills passed by the legislature this year that tighten Colorado’s gun statutes. Colorado Ceasefire, a nonprofit that calls for tougher gun regulations, says that’s a legislative-session record for the state. The laws impose new requirements on people obtaining concealed carry permits, the way firearms must be stored in vehicles and how weapons and ammunition are sold. Passing the live-fire test, as well as a written exam, will also be mandatory to get a concealed carry permit. Employees will have to report anyone who tries to unlawfully purchase a gun to law enforcement within 48 hours.
