Hey everybody, longtime lurker first post.

I will be trying to become a CA Fish and Game Warden in a couple years. If i open carry, and possibly get arrested, how will this affect my chances of getting the job.Even if i beat a conviction (Even though we're not breaking any laws) can the state see these records?

thanks guys

Get the job first and get off probation. We need good leos in the field. Don't oc at this time as any contact with LE could sink your chances.
