Rocky Mountain Gun Owners (RMGO) is a 501(c)(4) non-profit gun rights advocacy group in Colorado, United States.[1]
The group has become known for aggressive lobbying activities that have made their issues prominent, particularly in primaries and candidate nominating assemblies and for its influence in firearms public policy such as concealed carry[2] and constitutional carry[3] legislation.
Rocky Mountain Gun Owners maintains that it is Colorado's only "no-compromise" gun rights lobby and[4] adopts lobbying tactics that differ from other pro-gun organizations such as the National Rifle Association. The two organizations have exchanged heated criticisms of each other.[5]
