California honors no other state's concealed carry permit, and you must be a resident of the State of California to apply for a California CCW license (http://caag.state.ca.us/firearms/pubfaqs.htm).seamusTX wrote:As far as I know, California does not have non-resident permits or reciprocity with any other state.
It is a "may issue" state, unlike Texas, Florida, Utah, and others that have "shall issue" policies. In California, you contact your county Sheriff's office or metro Police department to get the CCW ball rolling. There is a statewide, standardized application, but the final approval authority lies with the law enforcement agency in whose jurisdiction you live. They may issue or refuse to issue at their discretion; anecdotal evidence indicates it is far easier to get a permit in some counties and jurisdictions than others.
Amen, Skiprr, and thanks for the reminder!Skiprr wrote:We may be dealing with some permit issuance delays out of Austin, but still I say: God Bless Texas!
