I was in CA over the holidays. I usually bring several guns to go shooting while there. This time I just used my families guns and ammo. We shot 10 different calibers/gauges and had over 15 guns on the tailgate of the trucks. With the heightened ammo/gun issues, I just didn’t want to take a chance of any misunderstanding of bringing out of state gear. The range we shoot at is open, free, no range officers (call your own cease fire) over 500yards, and had 2 State Park officers/Fish and game/Rangers??, and a couple of county sheriffs watching about 150 people have a great time. (It was the busiest day I have ever seen there) They did not harass anyone, just had a presence and scanned the group with big glasses. Although when they showed up about 15 cars left. I think if they wanted to they could have found several illegal arms in groups near us, but they didn’t cause a stir.

On a more ontopic item - I heard the clerk in the local walmart say that someone forgot to file an application and they could not sell ammo until they cleared some stuff with the DOJ there. Luckily we got out ammo on the 30th before the new year.

Overall it is not great there, but I still have more free public land to shoot on than I do in Texas. So I buy here, shoot there. I just have to watch and be sure I dont give reason to come chat with me.
