So then after the public outrage of seeing hundreds of thousands(sic) of UOC long guns..we will all be lining up for CCW permits as Kalifornia will become a "Shall Issue" state:banana: or not :banghead:


.....................--Moderator Note--
At one time we had people posting strings of bananas and such to bring false attention to their posts. Then for a while, OCDO limited to any one post, including quotes, to a maximum. This created a problem when emoticons were used in the quoted material and the responder could not therefore use any - the allowance was exceeded.

To avoid that conflict the limit was lifted with the determination that individual cases would be addressed. Let's not get into the "banana wars again."

Next time I'll just highlight my post as needed as the bananas and emoticons are childish ok for facebook and the like but not in our adult forum

So it basically means IF passed, CA residents WON'T be able to OC(other then long guns) or CC without an almost impossible to get permit to CC??? My god, I thought CT was bad. We recently fought a bill to limit magazines to 10 rds. The show of force at the state capitol by gun owners and hunters resulted in the bill NOT being voted on(wasn't brought up in session), so it's dead for now. It sounds like gun owners in CA need to band together and show up in MASS to let your state senate know exactly how people feel about this bill. Start calling your state senators and let them know NOW how you all feel about this bill!!! Hope it all works out for you all.......

well you see the problem is. that we'll do that and they'll still ignore us or poiltely tell us go **** yourself im gonna vote how i want. my father wrote the state Rep. and got a letter back basically saying what was previously mentioned. the issue really is that the people that we use to write our laws are scared shitless of the idea of the good guys being civilians. if we allowed open carry who would want to rob a store or shoplift. my view is that if everyone that can show profiency in a firearm should be allowed to loaded open carry. the law in my area has the worst responce time. so if i was given the abilty to prevent the crime or scare the assailant off i don't think their too likely to break into wherever again. Thoughts anyone?:banana:

You would think that someone somewhere would actually make it law that what is good for one "state" is good for another. LOC and CCW is now lawful in various states so why not in every state? Why have different laws for different states? Maybe I don't get it but seems pretty simple to me. Obviously this will cause a firestorm of answers and I realize that we cannot pick and choose what laws we like and adopt but isn't that the case as of today? Could you imagine if the USA was devoid of guns rifles and ammo? We'd all be speaking English English or Japanese OMG!!!!

I nominate myself as the spelling and grammar monitor of the day.

California is and shall always be the 31st state in the Union. Secession wouldnt alter this order, however splitting California into two or more parts would create a new state, which then would be the 51st state. If California secedes, it would become its own nation, absent any coalition of other states. Judging on how the government is currently adminstered, gun loving, liberty minded folks like us would not have it our way- instead we would see the state descend deeper into a socialist oligarchy, to the point of prohibiting all things assumed to be dangerous, evil, or ugly and mandating tolerance of everything deemed to be good for you, whether you like it or not.

I understand that it follows that OC of a long gun would be the next step, but it's not the inevitable one, eh? I'm of the impression that carrying a long gun concealed in California is legal as well if it's unloaded, isn't it? AR15 in a tennis bag, Winchester in a guitar case, that sort of stuff?

If you are going to transport a firearm Locked Unloaded and Cased, you may as well transport a handgun for convenience.

I don't mean locked and cased, just concealed; something under a coat, or in a satchel, something like that. Also, I thought LUCC of a handgun was only legal in a car?

I'm not putting it forward as a convenient alternative, I'm just curious about it's legality.
