In a breakthrough ruling with far-reaching implications, a federal judge issued a preliminary injunction requiring California law enforcement officials to accept concealed carry weapon (CCW) permits from residents of other states who are members of designated pro-Second Amendment groups.
The Golden State is noteworthy for its resistance to gun rights, and multiple organizations filed suit to force the government to issue nonresident CCW permits.
U.S. District Judge John W. Holcomb’s ruling applies to members of the California Rifle & Pistol Association (CRPA), Gun Owners of America (GOA), Gun Owners Foundation (GOF), and Second Amendment Foundation (SAF).
Holcomb’s order noted that California’s refusal to accept CCW permit applications from out-of-state residents “imposes a burden on conduct protected by the Second Amendment.”
Further, the state failed to show a precedent in the nation’s history and tradition of gun laws, as mandated by the U.S. Supreme Court’s Bruen decision.
The injunction is preliminary and does not represent a final decision in the case. However, state officials are required to reverse previous policy and begin accepting applications for Second Amendment organization members.
Nonresident applicants must present a valid driver’s license or valid identification card from their state of residence in place of a valid California driver’s license or identification card.
The make, model, and serial number of the nonresident’s weapon must be identified, and any firearm that is not legal to possess in California will be cause for rejection.
SAF Director of Legal Operations Bill Sack noted that the Bill of Rights does not change from state to state.
“It’s common sense that your fundamental right to bear arms does not evaporate when you leave your home state,” Sack explained. “We’re committed to dragging states like California kicking and screaming into alignment with the demands of the Constitution, and now, peaceable SAF members can exercise their right to bear arms in California.”
