Im CCW in CA as well. Yes you heard that right, there are conservative counties that allow CCW here in CA. Once you have it you can carry state wide.
You can have 3 guns listed on your license. I usually carry a G26 or when doing outdoor activities a Sig P238. I Also have an HK VP9, but due to its size its not as convenient to carry, specially since it warm here most of the year.
I hear it is much tougher to get a CCW in California. Are there a lot more hoops you have to jump through there, and a lot more fees to pay? Just curious. I live in the Midwest where it is easy but don't have one yet. I'm thinking about it. I have a buddy that is a certified instructor so I guess I could have him instruct me. Seems like here you just take the classes and that is about it.
Is it right that in California you have to demonstrate some kind of reason that you "need" to carry a gun? Like they wont approve it unless you have what they see as a real genuine need for one?
