The first of three new gun safety bills, in part a response to the March 22 shooting at the south Boulder King Soopers, was approved on a party-line 7-4 vote by the House Judiciary Committee.
But what a difference there was between the angry crowds that filled the Capitol over gun laws in 2013 compared to the hearing Wednesday evening.
House Bill 1298 would change state law on background checks for firearms transfers as well as close whatâs known as the Charleston loophole. That refers to the 2015 shooting at the Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina, which resulted in the murders of nine African American parishioners. The shooter obtained a firearm without a background check, because under South Carolina law â the same as Colorado s â if a background check doesnât come back within three days the dealer has to transfer the firearm to the buyer without it.
