Since when do Republicans run anything in Colorado? Complain to the Democrats you voted for to get your "right" to get high.
Nothing to do with Colorado. Federal law prohibits purchasing/ possession of a firearm to anyone with a medical marijuana permit, regardless of state laws.
Even in Constitutional Carry state's it would still be a federal crime to possess a firearm while being a user of marijuana or any other controlled substance. More than likely according to state laws too.
That is not accurate, I have a friend that is prescribed Suboxone and he has a carry/conceal license.
How would the license issuing group know the person was taking 'controlled substances' to begin with? Its a violation of HIPPA laws for them to know your personal medical information, (without your consent).

I missed part of this when I first replied. The question on the 4473 explicitly says "...unlawful user or addicted to..." so as another poster points out, simply using a controlled substance when prescribed doesn't rule out buying firearms from a Federally licensed dealer.

being 'addicted' to a controlled substance is subjective...I have been taking Suboxone for over 7 yrs now...its prescribed thru a doctor...but I can honestly say, I AM ADDICTED to it! (If I was to stop taking it tomorrow, I would suffer the with drawls)...that basically means, I am addicted...right?
Besides that, HIPPA laws are in place to protect patient privacy...essentially, ONLY those I want to know my personal medical information, are permitted to know it. I certainly DO NOT want the govt or some law enforcement agency knowing my private medical information, and/or what medicines I am taking!
I could play this game. Are you a marijuana user or addict? No, I was, but I quit 10 minutes ago. Off to the gun shop and King Soopers where I can now defend myself and others from people like Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa.
Mitch, Ted, Marco. What about my Second Amendment right? We are being killed in the organic kale section. Damn pot heads deserve it. No self-defense for you.

The Democrats you voted for run the federal government. Go whine to them.
Federally I'm not sure if you do a private transfer, in other words, no 4473.
If you were caught with a firearm while under the influence of or in possession of marijuana or a controlled substance you could be charged with the illegal possession of a weapon. It doesn't matter how, when or where a firearm was purchased.
