AB 144 hearing has been cancelled. The Author has until May to have the bill heard by committee. This bill affects every common gun owner not just open carry by creating crimes of common firearm uses.
The hidden agenda of this bill is dangerous to all gun owners who enjoy shooting as a family sport. This will affect businesses that include shooting ranges and will cost our state millions unnecessarily. The petition against AB 144 can be found here: http://www.petitiononline.com/CalOCPet/petition.html
Please sign the petition and have your friends sign too.

YOUR RIGHTS TO SELF-DEFENSE ARE UNDER FIRE!
YOUR RIGHTS TO SELF-DEFENSE ARE UNDER FIRE!
Though we lost the bill at the capitol we are not giving up. You can find the CalGuns legal opinion here: http://www.calgunsfoundation.org/resources/downloads/file/53-davis-cgf-ab-144-analysis-a-faqs.html
Find and hold your legislators responsible here:
Long gun carry is still legal and so are many other ways to carry handguns if you fall in an exempted situation. Airguns may also be purchased and carried both handgun and long gun styles.
When in doubt there is locked unloaded concealed carry.
Stay tuned for updates and never compromise on our gun rights. Giving up one right will never lead to bettering others it will only open the way to greater impact against our rights.
