One important element of our Carry License Compliance Initiative is to educate people on the laws and process, said Executive Director Brandon Combs. The information barrier has been a huge problem in the past, but were confident that our new tools will help thousands of Californians exercise their Second Amendment rights. In addition to (calgunsfoundation.org/carry/)expanded informational offerings, the Foundation has created a new California Carry License (LTC/CCW) Issue Reporting System, a service that applicants can use to report problems with a local law enforcement agencys application policy or practice. By creating a database of the personal experiences of carry license applicants from across the state, we will gain a comprehensive understanding of whats actually happening out there, explained Combs. These reports will help us determine which licensing authorities to focus our Compliance Initiative resources on, and, when necessary, take legal action against.

Using information pulled from the California Department of Justice and the issuance statistics of other shall-issue states across the nation, The Calguns Foundation estimated that the number of California carry licensees will grow by over 1000%, from about 56,000 today to as many as 1,000,000 in 2015. Theres no question that the public demand is there, said Combs. The right to carry is the biggest, most culturally-significant issue in gun rights today. Were going to do whatever it takes to make sure that all law-abiding people are free to exercise their Second Amendment civil rights in California.
