Videos tagged with Security Guard Firearms Permit

This video, presented by Joel Persinger of GunGuyTV, addresses the complex question of whether security guards in California can carry rifles or shotguns. Persinger explains the standard guard registration and firearm permit process, noting that permits are typically issued for handguns. He discusses existing exceptions for armored car personnel and specific animal containment scenarios. The video highlights a past attempt to create a separate long gun permit for guards that was never enacted. Persinger emphasizes the convoluted nature of California firearm laws and strongly advises seeking legal counsel and checking insurance policies before any security guard carries a long gun, as the legality remains uncertain and depends heavily on case law and specific interpretations by BSIS.
