Draftcarrying-and-transportation
Transportation is addressed through different firearm provisions with distinct conditions. Penal Code section 25610 supplies a limited rule concerning section 25400 for specified persons and purposes, subject to unloaded and enclosure conditions; section 25400 addresses concealed firearms. [1][2] The existence of a transportation provision does not determine compliance with every location or possession restriction. School-zone section 626.9, for example, has its own conditions and exceptions. [3] This term describes a legal context, not a universal authorization or handling procedure. [1][2][3]
