Anyone would like to meet up for OC meeting in Orange County? If yes we should plan a location or perhaps we could do HB again!

Does orange County have unincorporated areas?

If so, has Orange County banned all dischrge in those unincorporated areas?

If not, those unicorporated areas might be best for open carry events because you will be free to carry loaded guns and not within the e-check statute.

Yes to both questions, Mike.

OC has Cleveland National Forest (Ortega Hwy area). Not sure about any other unincorporated areas. Near the San Joaqin Pass maybe?

Are you saying Orange County has passed shooting bans applicable to all its unincorporated areas? if so, can you provide a link?

Thanks to Municode: Article 1. Firearms

Code:
Sec. 3-2-1. - Discharge of firearms.

It shall be unlawful for any person, other than a peace officer acting in his official line of duty, to shoot, fire or discharge, or for any person, firm or corporation to cause or permit to be shot, fired or discharged, in the unincorporated territory lying within the boundaries of any district hereinafter in this article defined, any rifle, shotgun, pistol, revolver or firearm, except when it may be necessary so to do to protect life or property, or to destroy or kill any predatory or dangerous animal.

So, what areas do not lie in these districts?

You would have to look at a map to accurately plot out the areas, and know how to identify each "parcel", "township", "case number", "fractional section" and other parts designated in the municipal codes.

If only we could get ahold of the map they used to draw the boundaries. Some of the descriptions actually use street names which is much more helpful.
