Frequently Asked Questions

What is California Bill AB 2033?

California Bill AB 2033 is a proposed law introduced by Assemblymember Smith that aims to extend the validity period of a concealed carry permit (CCW) from the current two years to five years, reducing the frequency and cost of renewals for law-abiding citizens.

What are the current requirements for a CCW permit in California?

Under California Penal Code Section 26150, applicants must demonstrate good moral character, a 'good cause' for needing a permit, residency, and complete required training. Training typically involves 8 hours for new applicants and less for renewals.

Why is Bill AB 2033 important for California gun owners?

AB 2033 seeks to alleviate the significant financial and administrative burden associated with CCW permits in California, which currently cost around $500 initially and $300-$400 for renewals every two years. Extending validity to five years would reduce these recurring costs and efforts.

What are the arguments against extending CCW permit validity in California?

Opponents, like representatives from the Brady Campaign, argue that extending permit validity to five years could impact public safety due to potential life changes. However, proponents counter that existing laws allow for permit revocation if an individual becomes a prohibited person.
