Re: CA: Firearms misdemeanor -

If you are a 'prohibited' person under fed or state statutes or court orders from any state, it applies everywhere. NICS will show that on your records. If not specifically prohibited, then you must look to see if your conviction fits the definitions of crimes that result in prohibition in CA. Feel free to contact me to set up a consult on the actual facts.
