So the good state of Colorado, in their infinite show of ignorance and arrogance, decided to reject my "application to purchase". Of course, they don't give any reason, and you can't just call them on the phone and ask. You have to fax them a letter appealing their decision. That's it, that's your only option. Having done that, I now get to wait two weeks to a month before I will get a written response. Hopefully they will not simply say that I was denied becuase they have a record showing I am not a resident of the state, or I am otherwise disallowed, or maybe not even tell me why, just that my appeal was denied, in any case I will get to continue down the bureaucratic path ad infinitem until they change their mind.

I wonder at what point in the process I need to contact the NRA attorneys and see if they will take my case? In the meantime, no more new guns for me, unless I find a private sale that suits me. Good luck with that, right?

I guess Karma had a different idea for me anyways. At least now I have another $2,000 sitting in my safe.
