I was wondering it it was legal to carry a pistol exposed or concealed without a carry permit while hiking? I was looking at some national parks and planning an over night trip. I was advised that there are wildlife that I had to watch out for ex. Black bears and mountain lions. Any info would be greatly appreciated thanks.

Theres a thread about rules / regs / laws, etc pertaining to each Park, National Forest, BLM, CA Park, Fed Land, etc, etc.
Do a search. I don't have a readily available link to provide you.sigpic -

Rule of Thumb - if it's legal to shoot, it's legal to carry. So research to see if where you are going allows hunting or target shooting, and remember that in CA public lands can move from Federal to State to local parks in a very short distance - and each of those might have different rules.ARCHIVED Calguns Foundation Wiki here: http://web.archive.org/web/201908310...itle=Main_Page
