Gun Charges
Protect Your Second Amendment Rights
You have the right to keep and bear arms, until you’re convicted of violating state or federal gun laws. In Colorado, gun and weapons laws can be violated quite easily, but there are several defenses you might make use of to minimize the penalties you face.
Being convicted of a gun or weapons offense in Colorado is no joke. In addition to the state charges listed here, you might also face federal charges.
- Possession of a concealed weapon or unlawful possession is misdemeanor charges that include jail time up to 12 months and a fine of up to $1,000.
- Defacing a firearm and possessing an illegal weapon are misdemeanor charges punishable by up to 18 months in jail and a fine of up to $5,000.
- Possession of a dangerous weapon is a felony charge punishable by up to three years in prison, two years of parole and up to a $100,000 fine.
If you are a repeat offender, it is entirely possible that the charges you face will be even more severe. You need a criminal defense attorney to have your back and help you fight the charges now!
