    If you're concerned about this, rent from somebody else.

        She has a CCW and you tell her to keep it locked up so that she can't use it for self defense in the home? I'm really confused.

        Or are you talking about strictly when you are in the house for something after giving notice?

        Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes...Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.

          That doesn't make any sense...
          1. She has a LTC, why would she lock it up?
          2. It should be inaccessible to childern, when it isn't under her control.
          3. Concealed means concealed, Outside! When in her home (owned or rented/leased), if she wants to carry it on her hip she can...

              How do you know your renter has a LTC? And oh yeah, all that other stuff..........none of your biznezz.

                Make sure you are a renter and not a lodger. If you are only renting a room, you are not a tenant, you are a lodger and as such, the persons whom you rent the room from have complete legal rights to enter your room whenever they please in California. I don't think that applies to you since you're renting a house, but it's a good thing to keep in mind.

                  Excellent catch there. I forgot about that little twist in California law. Who would of thought California would have a crazy law.

                    Be sure to get a look at your landlords car. If he has a NRA sticker on it be sure to tell him you are a gun owner. I did and now our families shoot together.

                      If you try to place such restrictions on someone renting an apartment or home you do not qualify as a pro-2A landlord.

                        It's to cover my own a55 when children are around the house and they find a loaded gun. I, too, have firearms in the house. When children are coming, we give each other a heads up and everything gets locked up on my end.

                          I'm renting her a room. My nieces & nephews will sometimes sleep over. So does her grandchildren.

                          I'm renting a house 2 blocks up the street to a family. I don't have anything on the lease that prohibits firearms on the premises.

                            She told me. She's 69 years old and teaches at a pretty rough high school nearby (I won't say which school).

                              Possible but not probable. If your landlord brings his kid over the kid is not your guest but a worker under control of the landlord. The landlord would be responsible for his actions, not you. The landlord, or his representative, has the right to enter. That doesn't give them the right to allow others to enter for the sole convenience of the landlord/rep.

                                When my landlord showed up for a repair nextdoor(they own that place too). My garage door was open and I was in there and talking to them. They saw all the reloading equiptment and powder/bullets.
                                They asked if there where any issues needing attention, since they where in the area. I told them no.
                                A week later they showed up wanting me to sign a paper about lead poisoning and such that CA required. No such problems exist, they were just CYAing I am sure, as I have a child now.
                                Than again I have a good relationship with my landlord.
