    CCW Transporting Ammunition

    Leaving Crescent City with Yreka as a destination requires part of the trip to be outside California. Would a CCW holder in both California and Oregon be in violation of the new laws regarding transportation of ammo into California with a loaded handgun as well as a full spare magazine?

    He would not be in violation.

        Eleven in the loaded handgun plus ten in the spare magazine.

          You are prohibited from buying ammo outside of the state and bringing it back. You wouldn’t have a problem with the ammo that you loaded into your gun and spare magazine in California. However, you would have a problem if you are carrying “large capacity magazines.” If you take those out of state, you would technically be “importing” them back into the state when you returned with them.

              But some have not yet internalized that CA laws always have a 'worst-case' interpretation, and we should always guard against enforcement of that interpretation.

              It's hard to get over the 'they can't really mean that, can they?' until you've been around for a bit.

              The OP's question is a bit in the other direction regarding ammunition, fearing worse interpretations than are yet warranted.

                Hell, I didn’t think of that

                So, when I use my Cali-legally-obtained 12 rd. mags in my CCW driving out on family visits to Vegas....I have to switch to a 10-rd mag coming back into Cali?? When it was legally obtained? Then after an hour or so of driving in Cali, with no CHP behind me...or when I get into my house 4 hours later....I can switch back??!!

                WTF?

                  Possession or lack thereof of a California CCW is not an exemption from any of the new regulations on ammunition.

                  The rules are the same either way.

                  Here is a good description: https://crpa.org/resources/crpa-webinars/

                    I believe once you bring a 11+ rd magazine out if California you can't bring it back in.

                      Now I can feel as safe in Vegas as I did here, just like before big bad Judge Benitez set DOJ efforts back 20 years ....Ahhhh, thank you CA,

                        I think OP has a 10-rd mag plus 1 in the chamber.

                          I realize that. The guy I quoted talked about bringing 12 rd magazines to Vegas and back if I read his post correctly.

                              Leave the standard cap mags (11+) at home. Once you leave the state with those mags, you can't bring em back.
