[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 1471522, member: 94491"] not sure--but I know that any scope that has a specific aiming point that uses "ballistic data" to help aim is a no-no-- any of the scopes that have Ballistic drop aim points are a no go in CO ( Bushnell, burris, ATN, sig are the ones I know of )--also any gun that has this type of ability, or any electronic trigger like the "tracking point" rifle not only did I clarify it with the CPW (regarding the bushnell and buris and atn scopes), but about 3 months ago I met a CPW field officer that lives in my area and he confirmed that they are not allowed --- --not sure if this would take the "anti-cant" feature into play or not as it does not "alter your aim point" -- I think if it alters your aim point then its considered a "smart rifle" here is a copy from the big game hand book --notice #2 says "including smart rifles"---this is the only thing I can find in the "handbook" BUT if you look online you can find the actual rules/regulations/laws documenet that I think is over 1220 pages long--in there it defines "smart rifle" a little better and goes into the parts where is explains that any "smart optic" turns a standard rifle into a "smart rifle" --it does specifically exclude "illuminated reticles" in the "no artificial light for hunting rule" from CPW big game handbook: "1. CENTERFIRE RIFLES a. Must be a minimum of .24 caliber (6 mm). b. Must have a minimum 16-inch barrel and be at least 26 inches long. c. If semiautomatic, a maximum of six rounds are allowed in the magazine and chamber combined. d. Must use expanding bullets that weigh a minimum of 70 grains for deer, pronghorn and bear, 85 grains for elk and moose, and have an impact energy (at 100 yards) of 1,000-ft.-pounds as rated by manufacturer. e. It is illegal to hunt game birds, small-game mammals or furbearers with a centerfire rifle larger than .23 caliber during regular rifle deer and elk seasons west of I-25, without an unfilled deer or elk license for the season. A smallgame, furbearer or unfilled big-game license is required. 2. FULLY AUTOMATIC RIFLES, including smart rifles, are prohibited." the "hunting handbooks" are just a quick description of the rules --by law you are required to "know all the laws" but thats kinda impossible so often times I will ask for a better definition and then they will link you up with a "field officer" who will give you the actual regulation number and its full wording. just like their "no NFA items" law for hunting -- this would include full auto, sbr's, sbs's, destructive devices, and OAW's from hunting BUT suppressors ( that are also an NFA item) are legal to hunt with they also have the law for pistol hunting that says " no butttstocks or OTHER attachments" which refers to pistol hunting with any sort of rear attachment like a sig brace or shockwave blade atatchmenet [/QUOTE]
