I’d be happy to slap a couple six shooters on like when I was a kid. A couple of nice Colts.
Wow, some sanity out of the Ninth Circuit.
***Oh no, does this now mean the Dems will just make up a new law to counter this ruling? ***
Of course they will or already have, just like they have circumvented the will of the VOTERS who, thirty two years ago, REJECTED Prop 15, which would have banned the selling of handguns in California.
The firing pin imprint law has killed new handgun ownership in Cali as gun companies are no longer selling their guns in Cali.
My husband had several guns and my favorite was a NICE little Baretta. He carried it and we lived (Husband gone now.) in California. I sure LIKE it.
Still, “The statute also requires that the applicant have good cause,”. I must have missed whatever the Constitution had to say about that.
thank God and mr. volokh.
hopefully now my wife will be able to apply.
The ninth circuit is not known as a conservative circuit. This looks good.
A win for the good guys!
I’m waiting for an ambush!! Seems fishy!
There is NO WAY this is going to stand. If anything the 9th circus is colluding with democrat libs to ensure the 2nd amendment is obsolete in the golden state. As much as I’d love to celebrate this decision I just can’t get too excited.
“The firing pin imprint law has killed new handgun ownership in Cali as gun companies are no longer selling their guns in Cali.”
Not true yet. Plenty of handguns are still okay for sale.

Link no work.
Ruger and S&W have pulled out. Will Colt follow? Will those that stay have the firing pin micro stamped?
The Morons in the state capital screwed themselves when the passed a law making open carry illegal. As such in order to bear arms would require concealed carry. Since counties and cities restrict concealed carry or require a permit they are infringing upon the right to bear arms. They left no room for the Court. In the end it would mean even a permit is infringing or limiting a persons right to bear. So either the State throws out their stupid open carry law or California and just became an unrestricted carry state or at a minimum a shall issue state with no reason needed to justify the need for concealed carry permit. Then again where does it say your have the right to keep and obtain a permit to carry

They’ll try.
It depends on the judge. It's a very large circuit with many judges. Judge O'Scannlain is one of its conservatives.
This is a big deal. It’s not chat.
Have leftards explained yet how the cops will find the shell casings for a revolver?
