(2,239 posts)Did you notice that the website you are using as a reference still lists open carry in CA as a legal activity.
It's out of date. 626.9 (l)provides the exemption.
(l)This section does not apply to a duly appointed peace officer as defined in Chapter 4.5 (commencing with Section 830) of Title 3 of Part 2, a full-time paid peace officer of another state or the federal government who is carrying out official duties while in California, any person summoned by any of these officers to assist in making arrests or preserving the peace while he or she is actually engaged in assisting the officer, a member of the military forces of this state or of the United States who is engaged in the performance of his or her duties, a person holding a valid license to carry the firearm pursuant to Article 3 (commencing with Section 12050) of Chapter 1 of Title 2 of Part 4, or an armored vehicle guard, engaged in the performance of his or her duties, as defined in subdivision (e) of Section 7521 of the Business and Professions Code.
A person with a valid CCW permit (code 12050) is exempt from the entire section code of 626.9
12027 doesn't matter it just supplies more definitions of things that 12025 does not affect, section (j) lists people with a CCW permit as things that Code 12025 doesn't affect.
Code 12025 is a ban on carrying of concealed firearms. People with a CCW Permit are not banned from carrying a pistol.
Here is that section:
12025. (a) A person is guilty of carrying a concealed firearm when he or she does any of the following:
(1) Carries concealed within any vehicle which is under his or her control or direction any pistol, revolver, or other firearm capable of being concealed upon the person.
(2) Carries concealed upon his or her person any pistol, revolver, or other firearm capable of being concealed upon the person.
(3) Causes to be carried concealed within any vehicle in which he or she is an occupant any pistol, revolver, or other firearm capable of being concealed upon the person.
Section 12025 does not apply to, or affect, any of the following:
Section (l) from 626.9 provides the exemption in clear languange. The whole of 626.9 does NOT APPLY to CCW permit holders.
You're grasping at straws, foaming at the mouth and stomping your feet. Get over it.

A PC 12050/26150 CCW allows permit holders to legally carry their listed handguns on both K-12 and college/university properties and campuses. That does not insulate a licensed student or employee of a school from administrative or job disciplinary action if the school prohibits carry for those groups.
