| reply to CatSnak Re: US Supreme Court says individuals have right to own guns
said by CatSnak :I agree about registering the guns. My pistols are registered but my rifles aren't (I've had them for years before I moved to CA). It's kind of hard though to conceal a rifle.  And when I am carrying either of my pistols they are always in plain site unless being properly transported (in a locked case out of reach) in my truck. I find this topic very interesting because I know its roots are far reaching, but admittedly I am completely ignorant to the current gun laws in California or in the nation for that matter. I never realized one was allowed to carry guns around in public. Maybe someone more knowledgeable can point me in the right direction.
BTW, what kind of rifle do you have? The only guns I've used are a bb gun, a .22 rifle, a 10 gauge shot gun, and a 12 gauge shot gun. Naturally, I ended up shooting myself in the hand with the bb gun because:
1.) A bug landed on my leg 2.) It was the hand gun variety
and after pushing the bug off my leg I went to shoot not realizing my thumb was over the end:( After a few stitches it was all better though:) -- There's so much to be thankful for...How can anyone be sad? |

| You can open carry just about anywhere but I wouldn't recommend doing it downtown or at the mall or someplace like that. I wear mine almost always at the ranch and when riding the horses unless we are riding in an area such as a county park that strickly prohibits firearms.
My rifles:
Ruger 10-22 semi auto Mauser 6.5x55 Swedish bolt action 12 gauge bolt action shot gun

Read here: » www.californiaopencarry.org/ I admit I have a tendency to get glassy eyed with boredom when reading statutes and laws, but I did manage to notice the following:
No permit or license to purchase, own, possess, keep, or carry, either openly or concealed, shall be required of any citizen of the United States or legal resident over the age of 18 years who resides or is temporarily within this state
to purchase, own, possess, keep, or carry, either openly or concealed, a pistol, revolver, or other firearm capable of being concealed upon the person within the citizen's or legal resident's place of residence, place of business, or on private property owned or lawfully possessed by the citizen or legal resident.
Isn't that basically what I said a few posts upthread?

| Sorry, I should have also included this:»opencarry.mywowbb.com/attachment.php?id=2487.
Please take a look at »www.californiaopencarry.org/ to get more detail. You will also find more info at »www.calguns.net. Every now and again groups of guys will meet up somewhere publicly for open carry gatherings, they will sometimes post details there. |
