Gun carry from Texas to Colorado

My son is planning a trip to Colorado but we are unclear on carry the laws in both New Mexico and Colorado. From what I have read, open carry is allowed in Both states. Any suggestions on particulars he needs to know?

How do you cross state lines legally. Does it have to be placed in the trunk?

both of those states honor a TX CHL

If he has a LTC permit from Texas, no worries.
I would keep it concealed however, and let any officer that stops them know immediately that he has one, and where it is.

Check out Handgun Laws.

Download the the app LegalHeat to your phone. It covers all 50 states.

this ^^^^^^ they keep it updated to state laws

No stops at the pot shops !!!!!

I always stop there

There are no border checks going into New Mexico or Colorado. You just drive past the welcome sign without stopping. It's no big deal. Guns are still legal there.

I always stop at the first police station and show them my passport. They think it is funny.

I would handcuff you and beat you with my flashlight.

Rookie. They have asp's lol

I don't know what that is.

Walking or driving?

Colorado has that idiotic 10 round mag capacity law.

Sure would suck to go to jail for having the wrong mag.

You should have no issues taking it but it is a whole different story bringing it back with a few pounds of Mary Jane stuffed in the same duffel bag.

Good luck.

This.

Like mentioned, Colorado does offer reciprocity with Texas CHLs.

Thank you for the information. It was helpful.

yes the law is still in place but I doubt you would ever even get a ticket because its only on mags made and bought in Co after 2013.

I have 30 round mags all over my house. Stores even sell them, but they just sell them un-assembled as "kits".

I didnt read that article, but I thought I remember hearing they done away with that BS "law"?
