Will Open-Carry Become legal in California?
In a decision issued just days ago, a divided panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that California’s policy, which bans open carry in counties where most of the state’s population lives, is inconsistent with the Second Amendment.
The Supreme Court currently has a 6-3 conservative majority, and some legal analysts say the ruling could ultimately be upheld, which would challenge California’s established approach to open-carry laws. At this time it is unclear what the California Attorney General’s Office will do next.
