I think that if you are in the woods hunting, then they are ok, but not to carry in town or on your person. I have asked a couple of our game wardens about that and received two different answers, plus our police department can't seem to agree on it either.

Section 12020 of the California Penal Code covers weapons. It is a long section, but if you read through it you can get a pretty good idea of what is legal to own and carry. I will stick with my Glock .40
