The ‘Colorado Freedom Shoot’ in Briggsdale Could Be The States Last High-Capacity Magazine Competition

The Colorado Freedom Shoot will be held Saturday and Sunday, June 29th and 30th at the Pawnee Sportsman's Center in Briggsdale, the States largest public range. This family friendly event could be the last of it's kind here in Colorado.
The Colorado Freedom Shootis a family-friendly event that will allow participants to shoot solo or compete as a team in handgun, carbine and long-range challenges for cash prizes, gear and giveaways.  The event will take place at the Pawnee Sportman's Center  (40914 County Rd. 71-80611) in Briggsdale this Friday and Saturday.

Participants can take part in a shotgun event called the “The Biden Challenge,” and The MOD Armory Night Vision Demonstration, where participants will be able to see some of the latest Night Vision, Thermal and IR technology as well as compete during an evening event.  Those in attendance will also be introduced to the range’s new 1,000+ yard engagement rifle range.

This shoot is important because it's the last shoot where one can acquire magazines that can carry, or be adapted to carry more than 15 rounds here in Colorado; the new gun laws go into effect July 1st, 2013.
