so I had one of the guys come in and verify..after he grouped them like leathal weapon and explained the correct way to pull the trigger versus a bow...it got better.<img src="http://www.bloodydecks.com/gallery/files/3/3/4/9/second_mag.jpg" alt="my40" />
would feel alot more comfortable if I could carry when out with the bow...especially after some of the recent scouting reports near the border and all.

Is it legal to carry a firearm while bowhunting in CA? I don't believe it is in CO and wouldn't think it would be here either. Just curious.

Also, post a picture of that pistol if you have one.

Not legal to carry a pistol while bowhunting in CA. At least not during the bow only seasons. I actually had a warden pat me down last year while bear hunting.

It is legal to pack now in AZ (due to illegals) and in WY(due to griz). These are very recent exceptions.

I figured as much. It's odd that you can carry a pistol in AZ due to the illegals but not in Southern Kalifornia. I must say that I'm hugely surprised by that disparity...

yeah I know its not legal but it sure would make me feel better...this year will be my first season and I really don't want thoughts in the back of my mind if I am sitting out there

The Illegals here will leave you alone, It's the big kitty's that stalk you in the dark

Not to throw this off track and this is not trying to be political but how often are there incidents with illegals? We saw a ton of them while hunting Barrett lake for ducks and never had an issue.

You're carrying a 12ga.

I've had them look for stuff (food/water) in the boat but when they saw me and the dog the went on there way.
