To carry a concealed weapon in California, you must have a conceal and carry weapons (CCW) permit.
In Sacramento County, the sheriff's department determines if someone qualifies for a license by looking at four requirements: good moral character, good cause for the license, is a resident of the county and has completed firearms training.
A newly released state audit found inconsistencies with the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department permitting process for CCW.
The state auditor reviewed three counties: Sacramento, Los Angeles and San Diego. |

Correction: State Audit Finds Major Discrepancies in Los Angeles County.
"The audit said none of the three counties were consistent in using their own internal standards to evaluate applications.
In Sacramento, the auditor also found that the sheriff's department doesn't collect sufficient documentation to prove applicants meet all CCW permit requirements.
All three departments charge application processing fees for CCW licensing, but the fees do not appear to cover the costs of the programs.
The report also states it found the starkest failure to follow policy in Los Angeles County." |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
