Neither entity has a vast library of code to wade through. And it appears that neither entity has any specific restrictions or ordinances specific to restrictingthe open carry of firearms.
From the City of Redding Municipal Code;
10.56.020 Fighting prohibited.
It is unlawful for any person who has concealed upon his person or who has in his immediate physical possession any dangerous or deadly weapon to engage in any fight or to participate in any rough or disorderly conduct upon any public place or way or upon the premises of another. (Prior code § 19-37)
10.56.030 Loitering about place selling alcoholic beverages.
It is unlawful for any person who has concealed upon his person any dangerous or deadly weapon to loiter about any place where intoxicating liquors are sold or about any other place of public resort. (Prior code § 19-38)
10.56.040 Loitering while carrying.
It is unlawful for any person, while carrying concealed upon his person any dangerous or deadly weapon, to loaf or loiter upon any public street, sidewalk, or alley, or to wander about from place to place, with no lawful business to perform, or to hide, lurk, or loiter upon or about the premises of another. (Prior code § 19-39)
As you can see, the code addresses only those carrying concealed. The odd thing here is, that there is no exemption of someone who possesses a license to carry concealed. So for a CCW licensee to aimlessly'wander about from place to place' or 'loiter' legally, they would have to either be unarmed or carry exposed.
Chapter 10.58 DISCHARGING FIREARMS
10.58.010 Prohibited.
It is unlawful to discharge within the city limits any pistol, firearm, airgun, musket or instrument of any kind, character or description, which throws a bullet or missile for any distance by means of the elastic force of air, or any explosive substance except in a regularly licensed shooting gallery or range or in accordance with the provisions of a permit authorized by the city council and issued by the chief of police. In granting such a permit the city council shall impose such conditions in connection therewith as are reasonably necessary to protect the health and safety of persons and property. (Prior code § 19-35)
Yes, looks like dischargingpaintball and airsoft guns in the city limits is forbidden outside a shooting gallery or range. But this is the extent of the code on firearms as found here.
