I'll be visiting California for Christmas and will be taking my Walther PPS M2, with all mags under 10 rounds. I know that I must keep the handgun unloaded and locked in a separate container from the magazines, and it cannot be the glove box. I have all that worked out, my question is with the current ammunition restrictions that were imposed on California what is legal regarding bringing loaded magazines into California?
The way I understand it is that ammunition cannot be transported across the California border that was purchased outside of California. And one has to have an ammunition permit of sorts to make ammunition purchases, I believe. So how do I, a resident of another state have ammunition for my firearm while I'm visiting? I don't have a problem stopping somewhere and purchasing ammunition in California, I just don't know if I can as an out of state resident.
Hopefully, someone from California can shed some light if I'm correct in my thinking, and with any solutions. This is my first time visiting since this ridiculous law.
If I run into a dead end here, I plan on calling down to a Sheriffs department and ask there, and probably still will.
