Call up your local mosque. I am certain they can help you.
Sportsman Supply on Camden Ave San Jose. You will need to take a test to get your firearms safety card first. You can take the test or take a brochure to study. $35.
This list is a bit old, but you can give them a call to see if they still exist.

Also, do a search on gun stores, bay area, Ca.
Good luck.
Always buy at gun shows or flee markets. Ask neighbors if they have one for sale. Registered guns are confiscated guns. .
There are several gun stores in South SF, Brisbane, but I can’t recall their names. Imbert & Smithers in San Carlos is an old gun store that specializes in hunting guns, bolt action.
If a store will help you with your purchase, and give good advice, I recommend the local stores that are endorsed by people on FR. Particularly with gun shops, it’s nice to buy local if they provide real service. [I am not from the area and have no specific local recommendations.]
If not, I recommend http://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/index.php - you may have to pay an extra $25 for the FFL, but you are likely to save more than that with Buds prices.
Gun Exchange is on Almaden near Foxworthy in San Jose. I’ve bought several there. Unfortunately, I since have had a marine related setback which has caused a loss of most of them.
To late, they’ve gone.
Anyone honest and pay cash. Knowing the laws follow them and you will be ok. A couple of glock 19’s and a lightweight 38 snubbie for carry. Practice and take classes and practice practice practice. Buying is the smallest part. Practice and know the laws and are you ready for the aftermath?
Simply buy online and have the lower price product delivered to a local ffl dealer near you. Better selection, better price and less bother.
Did you pick the weapon yet? Taurus has a TCP .380 with a good trigger for a lady. Try buds gun shop online where it’s just above 200 with delivery.
Cheers...
You need help and advice on getting a new home out of there.

Hey ,CatOwner
I’d like to apologise for these fruits and nuts,
California brings out the worst.
I’m in SoCal and could point you to six Great Gun Shops within
twenty minutes.
The shops are pretty busy right now,good Luck.
I visit 2 or 3 a week at least.
After these latest incidents I’ve
noticed a lot of older folks as first time
buyers.
They are cautious and a bit intimidated.
Search out a shop you like and go on a weekday
when it’s not so busy.
