With the recent change to the Denver Revised Municipal Code (D.R.M.C.) 38-130, bump stocks are now illegal to sell, carry, store, or otherwise possess in Denver. According to the D.R.M.C. 38-130(2), bump stocks are defined as any device for a pistol, rifle, or shotgun that increases the rate of fire achievable with such weapon by using energy from the recoil of the weapon to generate a reciprocating action that facilitates repeated activation of the trigger.
If Denver residents are in possession of a bump stock, and would like turn-in their bump stock to the Denver Police Department, they can do so at any Denver Police Station. Anyone in Denver who is charged in possessing, selling, carrying, or storing a bump stock, will be subjected to a fine and/or incarceration. The fine for violating this ordinance is between $100 to $999. If incarcerated, time spent can range from 10 to 180 days. Comments are closed.
