can i get a permit for a hand gun in calif?

Answer 1

you don't need a permit to purchase a handgun / however if you want to carry one concealed , you might as well give up now , you have a better chance hitting the lottery , becoming president , surviving a nuclear blast , and out running a pack of angry wolves then you do getting that permit in calf

Answer 2

If you're talking about a concealed weapons permit, you have to apply to the Sheriff. Each county has different criteria, but for the most part you'll need to provide a good reason for wanting it. This has led to some controversy, but it's been the same for a while.

As far as owning a handgun, that's legal provided you meet the age, etc. requirements.

Answer 3

You fill out a form and wait for the government to check up on you and if you're okay you pick up the hand gun.

To get a permit to carry a concealed weapon you need a good reason.

Answer 4

If you're looking for a CCW permit, your best chances are in rural counties - but you have to have residency in them. Forget getting a CCW along the coastal counties (SF, Monterey, Santa Barbara, LA, Marin, etc..).

As others noted, check http:www.packing.org for details. You don't need a permit to purchase/own a handgun. BUT you do need to show proof of training.
