Statewide and State Legislative Survey Key
- Do you oppose "one-gun-a-month" laws that limit purchases
of firearms by law-abiding citizens?
- Should state law prohibit Colorado localities from placing limitations
on the rights of citizens to purchase, possess, or carry firearms?
- Would you oppose legislation mandating a waiting period before the
purchase of a firearm?
- Would you oppose legislation that would require that firearms purchased
by private citizens be registered with law enforcement and tracked by a
centralized record system administered by government agencies?
- Do you oppose legislation banning the manufacture, sale or possession
of semi-automatic firearms?
- Do you oppose legislation banning the manufacture, sale or possession
of large-capacity magazines?
- Do you oppose laws that would require that the police give permission
prior to a person buying a firearm?
- Do you oppose laws which allow persons who are shot by a properly-working
firearm to sue firearms manufacturers and/or firearms sellers (strict liability)?
- Do you oppose laws which would impose any punitive taxes on the ownership,
purchase or use of firearms or ammunition currently available to honest
citizens?
- Do you oppose government licensing to buy a gun?
- Will you oppose computerized "instant" background check legislation
since it centrally registers gun sales and gun owners?
- Do you oppose government mandated use of trigger locks or other such
hazardous "safety" devices which have the effect of making it
difficult, if not impossible, to have a gun available to defend your home
and family?
- Would you support Vermont-style legislation which would eliminate all
requirements to pay fees and register gun owners and simply allow law-abiding
citizens to carry firearms openly or concealed (at the individual's discretion)
for any reason except for the commission of a crime?
Will you sponsor or co-sponsor Pre-emption?
Will you sponsor or co-sponsor Vermont-style concealed carry?
Will you vote against Dottie Wham for President of the Senate (for Senators)
or Russ George for Speaker of the House (for Representatives)?
n/a = No answer to the question
@ = Candidate favors background check if it does not register gun owners
(which Brady does)
Bolded names have been endorsed by Rocky Mountain Gun Owners PAC
Results show responses from all candidates. If candidates in your area
do not appear on this form, they do not think enough of gun rights to answer
the survey.
Congressional Candidate Questions
Would you oppose Brady II legislation to:
1. require handgun buyers to undergo fingerprinting, pass a mandatory safety
training course and limit buyers to one purchase per month?
2. restrict the sales of ammunition?
3. require BATF to computerize (register) firearms owner’s records?
4. increase license fees for gun dealers?
5. mandate trigger locks?
6. Would you support repeal of the 1993 Brady Act, including its waiting
period and instant check?
7. Would you support a repeal of the 1994 law banning any types of semi-automatic
firearms and limiting magazine capacity?
8. Would you support cutting funds for the BATF?
9. Do you believe an individual has a right to use deadly force in defending
self and family from violent assault -- both in and away from the home?
10. Would you oppose a crime bill or a spending bill that contained any
restriction upon the people’s Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms?
11. Would you support a repeal of the Lautenberg Domestic Gun Ban?
12. Would you support a repeal of the Kohl Gun Free Zones ban?
13. Given the lack of authority in the U.S. Constitution for enacting gun
control, would you support a repeal of the 1968 Gun Control Act?
14. Would you support legislation requiring that federal "police"
agents must first get permission from the chief law enforcement officer
of a county or city before executing an arrest or search warrant?
15. Would you oppose a ban on any type of ammunition?
n/a = No answer to the question
* = Voting record is contrary to their answer
Bolded names have been endorsed by Gun Owners of America Political Victory
Fund
