Looks like the bill is headed back to the House, which is Democrat controlled, where it's seems to be a forgone conclusion about passing. I guess Magpul is headed to a gun friendly state like Texas or maybe neighboring Utah.

How long will it take to go into effect? People waiting for mags will have to wait a hell of a long time more when magpul has to move the factory

the governor still has to sign it and it still has to pass in the house.  so who knows when it takes effect?

It's headed back to the House, which is controlled by the Dumbocrats, so it's a basically a sure thing it passes. And Gov. Hickenlooper has stated that he'll sign it as soon as it's on his desk. If I had to guess, it's law within the next month.

Hopefully Magpul would wait until 2014 to leave when every single Democrat loses their seat in Colorado (and most other states) and all this madness is repealed.

Last memo I saw said they already had production ready to move and partially moved.  They also stayed pmag production wouldn't be compromised. 

There was also something on fb floating around that if you lived in CO your mag order would be bumped to the top before the ban takes place.

They also stated they would leave behind a small work force, so officials can remember what they did next election season.

I hope they keep their word and move after this law passes.  There was a whole bunch of hype after they continued to sell mags to Leo, then went back to original plan after complaints from people and stopped sales
