What do you foresee in your future?
I'm fortunate to live in one of the many rural counties in CA that have no issue granting a carry permit. Local Sheriff knows the deal here, could be a 45-60 minute response time for one of the deputies to arrive depending on where in the county they happen to be.
But, the State requires certain things like a class and qualifying every two years now (used to be longer I believe). A couple of years back they made the training requirement more stringent. Which of course means more expensive. And qualifying requires

which means more expense given the high cost of ammo (notwithstanding availability, especially in CA where mail order to individuals is not allowed).
I fully expect Gavin and cronies to attempt to make it even harder, perhaps a minimum # or rounds in training, lengthening the courses for initial and renewal, charging more for the DOJ background checks, shortening the permit to one year, etc etc etc.
Which of course will mean more law suits given the recent Ruling.
MA, NJ, NY, HI, etc................what do you folks think will happen there now that like CA the States will be required (shall, not may) to grant permits/licenses?
