I've been reading quite a bit on the California DOJ. Damn...pretty pathetic. Just need some help with an overview to make sure I haven't missed anything.
1) Within 60 days I have to register all my handguns. The jack booted thug I spoke with at the DOJ said there were no restrictions on the handguns I can bring into the state with the exception that I cannot possess any hi-capacity magazines (anything over ten rounds) of any kind. Seems a little inaccurate to me, as I see that people in California are only permitted to buy specifically listed guns. Are my Glocks, Sigs, Springfield XDs and second and third generation S&W handguns legal for me to bring into the state (without the hi-cap mags of course) Am I getting good information here?
2) Apparently I cannot bring my AR15 at all. Are there any exceptions that an be made here?
3) Can only purchase one handgun a month. Do I have to get a permit to purchase a handgun of any type? What is the criteria for permitting someone to purchase a handgin?
4) All gun sales must go through a dealer with an FFL with the exception of a black powder firearm. Is this correct?
5) Concealed weapons permits appear to be at the pleasure of the local police authority based on their appraisal of "need". So what are my chances of getting a permit to carry? Based on what I've read to this point they appear to fall somewhere between slim and none! Correct?
