eTaylor Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Could just make a thing where you can request exemption from the rule. Another major motivator to stay out of trouble and not do dumb shit without thinking about the consequences. Link to comment

The following people are generally prohibited from acquiring or possessing a gun in California: felons (that is, anyone convicted of any felony offense in any jurisdiction),5 persons who are addicted to narcotics,6 persons with two (2) or more convictions under Penal Code 417, California's law against brandishing a weapon,7 persons convicted of certain misdemeanor offenses (such as a violation of Penal Code 273.5),8 persons who suffer from mental illness (people placed on two involuntary psychiatric holds in a year get a lifetime gun ban),9 and people under 18 (people under 21 may not purchase a gun).10 Penal Code 29810 requires that people convicted of the requisite crimes must relinquish their firearms to authorities. If you are prohibited from owning a gun, you are also prohibited from owning ammunition.11 Anyone else may possess a firearm or ammunition (other than armor piercing ammunition).12 However, in order to purchase a handgun, you must possess a valid handgun safety certificate.13 If you have the legal right possess a gun, there are several ways to exercise your Second Amendment right to bear arms. All of the above is all that really matters when it comes to ACQUIRING AND POSSESSING A FIREARM which is what the PF license is used for. Carrying a firearm on you concealed is a whole other bucket of worms and yes, it is A LOT more restrictive. But for the most part, the vast majority of people, including gang members with zero convictions, can and do possess guns in the USA, including California. And to answer some people saying 'legal weapons shouldn't flood the illegal market', it is realistic for legal weapons to flood the illegal market. To even add to that, most gangs attain military-graded weaponry since their fellow gang-affiliated associates, such as Bloods, Crips, MS-13, Sureno, Latin King etc... smuggle the weapons to these sets as military agents.
