Under California law, anyone can have a gun in their home. There's nothing wrong with that as long as it's the right type of gun. You can't have an assault rifle that can Load and Reload the weapon rapidly. A felon cannot own, use, or possess a firearm or bullets.
California does not honor any non-resident concealed firearm permits. Starting April 22, 2025, non-residents can apply for a non-resident CA license-to-carry (LTC). Open and concealed carry is exempted in your home or your business, including camp sites or hotel room (temporary residence).
