Coloradans who live in Montezuma County and want to buy certain types of guns will not be able to get a newly required eligibility card from their local sheriff, the Montezuma County Sheriff’s Office announced Monday.
Instead, they will need to travel to another county and likely pay an out-of-county resident fee to get that card.
La Plata County, directly to the east of Montezuma County in the southwest corner of the state, will be issuing eligibility cards.
The sheriff’s office is charging out-of-county residents $150 and in-county residents $63, which includes the mandatory $52 fee set by Colorado Parks and Wildlife.
It means a Montezuma County resident who wants to become eligible to buy one of the guns will need to travel and pay more.
