Frequently Asked Questions

What is California's SB2 law regarding concealed carry?

California's SB2 is a new concealed carry law designed to make obtaining and using a permit extremely difficult. It imposes numerous restrictions on where firearms can be carried, significantly increases training requirements, and complicates the application process, potentially violating Second Amendment rights.

How does SB2 conflict with the Supreme Court's Bruen decision?

SB2's extensive 'sensitive location' restrictions and stringent application process are argued to directly defy the Supreme Court's Bruen decision. Justice Thomas's opinion in Bruen cautioned against states making entire areas off-limits for concealed carry, which SB2 appears to do.

What are the new training requirements under California's SB2?

SB2 enhances CCW training, requiring 16 hours for new applicants (up from 8) and 8 hours for renewals (up from 4). It also mandates specific instruction on safe storage, law, and mental health, plus a written exam.

What types of locations are restricted under SB2?

SB2 prohibits concealed carry in many public areas, including parks, government buildings, bars, restaurants serving alcohol, and places of entertainment. Most private commercial establishments are also off-limits unless a sign explicitly permits firearms.
