LA County Resident with an interesting question
As of right now, I am confident that if I were to apply for my CCW in LA County, it would be struck down and all that I would accomplish is having a denial attached to my name. There are a number of things happening this year that could slowly change the tide for us in LA County, but right now we are unable to get a CCW.
My question is, if I can't have a loaded concealed handgun on my person, is there anyway that I can keep a handgun unloaded and locked near my person during my normal day to day life. What is the legality of having an unloaded firearm in a locked compartment of a backpack that I take to and from work with me and leave in the car when I'm at church or at the mall? Or better put, how close to CCW can I get without actually having my concealed carry permit and still be within the law. If this is a possibility, what are your thoughts on going that route? What issues may I run into? Is this a stupid idea and should I just keep fighting and waiting until we finally become almost shall issue in LA County?
Thanks for your input.
