Colorado Implements New Gun Law Raising Minimum Age to Purchase Firearms to 21

Starting Monday, a new gun reform law in Colorado will prohibit people under the age of 21 from purchasing firearms, with exceptions for certain groups. Local gun shops and shooting ranges express concerns about the law's impact on individuals' ability to protect themselves, while gun groups, including the Rocky Mountain Gun Owners, have filed lawsuits arguing that the law is unconstitutional. Supporters of the legislation argue that it is meant to protect young people and improve public safety by limiting access to guns.
