CCW Success!!!

[3boyzmom]

Just wanted to post the good news that I was approved and have now RECEIVED my CA CCW in Sacramento County. As a CA real estate broker, my "just cause" is the fact I often collect rents in cash and I serve eviction notices in rural parts of the county. It took 5 months to get approval and then about a month and a half to process everything once my class completion/shooting qualification was turned in.

You Lucky SOB!

Congratulations! Now go get some nachos and ammo at Walmart, and enjoy your newfound freedom to shepherd your responsibility.

If you have not yet, you may want to take a gander at www.calccw.com - lots of useful information over there as well, specifically regarding CCW in California.

Big Congrats! Wish it was the same way here in LA county...

Congratulations,

I'll PM you the top secret codes and video of the secret handshake.

Thanks for the link Steadyrock. I'll check that out.

I've written letters to the assemblymen on the public safety committee considering AB 357. Don't know if it has any chance of passing- or even getting out of committee- but I really wish CA was a must issue state!

[gotgunz]

This is not possible! Everybody on Calguns knows that ccw's are not available and the only alternative is UOC!

I call B.S. !!!!


LOL! Congrats on the rice paper.

Any restrictions printed on the LTC?

[spegull03]

Are there any work-only restrictions since you used employment as "good cause?"

[3boyzmom]

Restrictions- can't carry 1000 ft from a school, while consuming alcohol, or in an establishment that primarily serves alcohol. I have 3 boys, so I pick them up from school at the corner now, instead of going in the parking lot. Those are the only restrictions.

For every day carry, I have a holster purse, in which I carry a S&W 340pd with laser grip. That's the same gun that I keep in my bedroom at night...

I also have an M&P 9mm that I sometimes carry in a holster. I'm not a big gal (5' 2", 125 lbs), so it depends on what I'm wearing if I can carry on my hip or not. I much prefer to carry on my hip, but I definitely keep better track of my purse now that my gun is in it ;-)

Wait a second, did they say why you can't carry within 1000 feet of a school? I thought those with concealed carry licenses fall within one of the exceptions to the Gun Free School Zone laws.

[3boyzmom]

No, they didn't say, but they also warned us about that in the CCW class I had to take. You can't carry within 1000 ft.

[kf6tac]

Hmmm, maybe it's not an exception. My memory has been letting me down in the past 24 hours.
