Abstract
This Article examines the authority of California local governments to "license" firearms possession-i.e., the authority to permit or deny the possession of firearms and/or ammunition within a locality's geographical limits. As such, the relevant case law makes clear that local governments may not ban handguns and other firearms that state law does not forbid the law-abiding adult citizenry from possessing.
