It is possible to purchase a gun in Colorado if you have a medical marijuana card, but there are some restrictions and things you need to keep in mind.

- Under federal law, it is illegal to use or possess firearms while under the influence of marijuana or any controlled substance. This means that if you are caught using marijuana and possessing a firearm, you could be subject to federal prosecution, even if medical marijuana is legal in your state.

- Colorado state law prohibits people who are "habitual users" of marijuana from possessing firearms, regardless of whether they have a medical marijuana card. An habitual user is defined as someone who uses marijuana more than once a month or who is dependent on marijuana.

- You must disclose your marijuana use on the ATF Form 4473, which is the form you fill out when you purchase a gun. If you lie on this form, you could be subject to federal prosecution, even if you are not an habitual user of marijuana.

- It is important to talk to a lawyer to get legal advice specific to your situation before you purchase a gun.

- If you are unsure whether or not you are eligible to purchase a gun, you should contact your local law enforcement agency.
