Hey Mike,
As I posted in your other thread, Bill Hunt has stated that personal protection and self defense will be considered prima facie good cause. State mandated requirements means training.
Take a search around at CalGuns.net and CaliforniaCCW.org. There should contain emails stating that he would issue for personal protection and self defense.
Sheriff Mike Carona takes the entire application fee up front, rather than only ask for 20 percent of it per AB2022 (1998), good cause is hit and miss, depending on who you get for a reviewing person at the sheriffs office, some pro-gunners, some Brady-ites, which in turn if denied gets you an appeal with Mike Carona or one of his undersheriffs.
He also requires inspection of handguns and shooting at the Orange County range.
Bill Hunt would actually follow the law, not require more than 20% before approval for good cause (though he may just take the fee up front due to approving all applications, which is ok), not require such inane and stupid requirements, and jus t issue for self defense, which eliminates a majority of the bureaucracy in the CCW unit (which basically has a lot of folk interpreting good cause for him whereas if it's just self defense you only need 4, 5 people at the most, rather than, say, 20).

Anyway, the interviewer (BTW, it was a very pleasnt young woman, not a big burly guy in uniform) asked me questions about where I shoot, how often do I shoot, how many weapons do I take when I shoot--pretty straight forward stuff, UNTIL she asked me to state in my own words why I needed a CCW. That's when I brainfarted, I gave the standard reasons that were stated in the letter from the range where I shoot, and she was still waiting for more. :banghead: I stumbled through a scenario in which I was in a traffic accident on the way home from the range at night, which resulted in loose ammo and weapons in my car, and having an arriving officer checking things out and saying, "Hey, wait a MINUTE, you have GUNS!" and arresting me on the spot. It was a pretty lame scenario, and I decided to shut up at that point, and the interview was pretty much over. I figured I blew it, but (34) days later, I received approval to proceed, so...
