my son moved to co. about 18 months ago --he didn't have his ccp/chl yet,so he planned on taking class in co. as he started to check into this -- time had lapsed ,(moving,home school,and new job) this last wk. he got back into it again and was informed that the laws of co. had changed-- now from what he tells me --this is "post" arizona shooting--i pulled it up on internet , and this is what law reads now (notice gun in car situation)
CARRYING:
It is unlawful to carry a firearm concealed on or about one's person without a permit, except for a person in their dwelling, place of business, or on property owned or controlled by him or her.
A permit is not required to carry a handgun where carrying firearms is legal, if the handgun is not concealed.
A handgun is not considered concealed if it is in the possession of a person who is in a private automobile or other private means of conveyance who is carrying it for a legal use, or the handgun is in the possession of a person who is legally engaged in hunting activities within the state.
Exempt from the requirement of a permit to carry a concealed handgun are peace officers (active and retired) of Colorado, probation officers, law enforcement officers employed by jurisdiction outside the state, so long as the employing jurisdiction exempts peace officers employed by jurisdictions within Colorado from any concealed weapons laws in effect in those jurisdictions.
