Got a response from an attorney and he wanted serious $$$ and a 30 minute consultation was somewhat reasonable but he told me: new judge (unknown sentencing pattern), new law (sb2) and my issuing agency (LAPD) would be at best, 50/50 to reverse the denial.
He did like my clean record since, NO FELONIES (if I was a felon I wouldn’t be able to BUY FIREARMS (


)), the age of the offenses, and I was renewing a CCW, should work to my advantage.
Made a decision to NOT pursue and will withdraw my application as to not risk a rejection in my record with the CCW dept. The juice was not worth the squeeze to me, especially given the cost with 50/50 odds, I’ll wait and keep my eye out on this specific PC rejection, hoping it gets updated.
So as a NON FELON (can’t believe some people don’t read up on the law and assume the worst lol), I’ll continue to buy firearms, use my FFL to buy ammo and keep practicing and exercising my rights while enjoying this hobby
