So for all intents and purposes you can lcc while actually doing the activity, but LEO will not interpret it that way....?
so unloaded cc is legal while hunting and fishinng and going to and from... loaded CC might be legal but it might not be in these instances... Ok, so UCC at the beach, UCC at the lake by the freeway or is it mountains lakes only?
I'll break it down into bullet points for clarification...
PC 12025 Makes it generally illegal to conceal a handgun.
PCs 12026 through 12027.1 provide possible exceptions to 12025
PC 12031 may make it illegal to have a loaded firearm.
Where UCC = Unloaded Concealed Carry, LCC = Loaded Concealed Carry.
** UCC while hunting or fishing is perfectly legal per 12027(g)
** UCC while travelling to/from hunting or fishing is perfectly legal per 12027(g)
** LCC while hunting or fishing. Legal to Conceal per 12027(g) and
MIGHT be legal to carry loaded if you have an exemption per 12031 for a LOADED firearm. See 12031(i) below as an example...
** LCC while travelling to/from hunting or fishing.
NEVER legal to conceal while loaded per 12027(g) (but other exemptions to 12025 and 12031
may apply)
12031 (i) Nothing in this section shall prevent any person from carrying
a loaded firearm in an area within an incorporated city while
engaged in hunting, provided that the hunting at that place and time
is not prohibited by the city council.
