REQUIREMENTS TO BUY A HANDGUN The three requirements to purchase a handgun in Colorado include: 1. being a Colorado resident, 2. being at least 21 years old, and 3. passing a Colorado Bureau of Investigation background check The background check requires the buyer to fill out an ATF form 4473 at a licensed gun store, even for a private gun sale. The store will then submit it to the CBI InstaCheck system. The approval/rejection process typically takes less than a half-hour. Upon approval, the buyer can leave the store with the gun right away and carry the gun openly. 4. ***2022 UPDATE As of 2022, through the passing of House Bill 23-1219 in Colorado, there is a 3 day waiting period after purchase of a firearm, prior to delivery of that firearm. This waiting period applies to gun sales within a gun store, at gun shows, and private sales. Coloradans who purchase handguns may not carry them concealed unless they also get a CCW permit. People can apply for a CCW permit at their local sheriff’s office, and they have to demonstrate handgun competency, usually by completing a handgun training class within the last ten years. Under CRS 18-12-105, a first-time offense of carrying a handgun with no CCW permit is a class 1 misdemeanor carrying up to 364 days in jail and/or a fine of up to $1,000.
