Existing law authorizes the sheriff of a county or a chief or other head of a municipal police department of a city or a city and county to issue a license to carry a concealed firearm upon proof that the person applying for the license is of good moral character, that good cause exists for the issuance, that the applicant satisfies specified residency requirements, and that the applicant has completed a course of specified training. Existing law requires that licenses and applications for licenses be uniform throughout the state and be submitted upon forms prescribed by the Attorney General. This bill would require the Attorney General to develop a uniform license that may be used as indicia of proof of licensure throughout the state. The bill would require the Attorney General to approve the use of licenses issued by local agencies that contain specified information, including a recent photograph of the applicant. The bill would require the Attorney General to retain exemplars of approved licenses and maintain a list of agencies issuing local licenses. The bill would create a committee comprised of representatives from the California State Sheriffs' Association, California Police Chiefs Association, and the Department of Justice to review and revise the uniform licenses, as specified.
