Some interesting information I researched today (I will leave a trail for you guys via http links), that I found gut-wrenching. I contacted the Cleveland National Forest Ranger Station, designated for the area to which I would be hiking with my kids. Not hunting, or fishing, just hiking.

I asked to speak with someone who could give me specifics about open carrying during my visit to the N.F. I was transferred to a lady by the name of Mary who told me it was hunting season, and as long as it was hunting season, she said I could open carry a firearm. She didn’t specify what type of a firearm, or what type of ammo I could carry. She then said that when hunting season is over, you are no longer allowed to open carry a firearm, at all, unless you have a permit (????) I asked her what type of a permit? She said, one that allows you to carry a gun? I said "Oh you must be talking about a Handgun safety certificate." she said "yeah, whatever its called."
I then proceeded to call the orange county sheriffs department, south patrol.
