That a firearm is concealed from ordinary observation, so connected with the person as to be readily accessible for use. A gun worn in an external holster can easily be seen- not concealed. A gun in a locked case- not accessible. Laws vary from place to place.

Does California have a concealment law?
Answered by Reid Breitman, for information only and not as legal advice. Please consult your attorney before relying on any advice you receive over the internet. I am not sure if this question is about concealing the vehicle itself. If it is, then see California Penal Code §154(a), which reads: 154. (a) Every debtor who fraudulently removes his or her propertyor effects out of this state, or who fraudulently sells, conveys,assigns or conceals his or her property with intent to defraud,hinder or delay his or her creditors of their rights, claims, ordemands, is punishable by imprisonment in the county jail notexceeding one year, or by fine not exceeding one thousand dollars($1,000), or by both that fine and imprisonment.If this is a question about concealed weapons in a vehicle, then see the following, which I found on a lawfirm site which is a great explanation of the current laws: Generally, California law prohibits any individual from carrying a loaded firearm of any kind on his or her person or in a vehicle while in any public place or on any public street in an incorporated city, or in any public place or on any public street in a prohibited area of unincorporated territory. A loaded firearm refers to a firearm that has a cartridge or shell in a chamber, clip, or magazine that is located inside of or is attached in some way to the firearm itself. California Penal Code Section 12025 reads in pertinent part: (a) A person is guilty of carrying a concealed firearm when he or she does any of the following: * (1) Carries concealed within any vehicle which is under his or her control or direction any pistol, revolver, or other firearm capable of being concealed upon the person * (2) Carries concealed upon his or her person any pistol, revolver, or other firearm capable of being concealed upon the person. * (3) Causes to be carried concealed within any vehicle in which he or she is an occupant any pistol, revolver, or other firearm capable of being concealed upon the person. (b) Carrying a concealed firearm in violation of this section is punishable, as follows: * (1) Where the person previously has been convicted of any felony, or of any crime made punishable by this chapter, as a felony * (2) Where the person violates paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) and has been convicted of a crime against the person, property, or of a narcotics or dangerous drug violation, by imprisonment in the state prison, or by imprisonment in a county jail not to exceed one year, by a fine not to exceed one thousand dollars ($1,000), or both that imprisonment and fine. California prohibits any individual from carrying a concealable firearm upon his or her person or within any vehicle under his or her control or in which he or she is an occupant. This prohibited conduct under Penal Code Section 12025(a) is subject to numerous exceptions, including that for persons with concealed weapons licenses. California prohibits any person - including a concealed weapons permit holder - from carrying a loaded firearm upon his or her person or within any vehicle under his or her control while engaged in picketing activity. Picketing activity means any informational activities conducted in a public place relating to a concerted refusal to work. In addition, any person carrying a loaded firearm of any kind with the intent to commit a felony is criminally liable for "armed criminal action." For purposes of this prohibition only, a firearm shall be deemed loaded whenever both the firearm and the unexpended ammunition capable of being discharged from the firearm are in the immediate possession of the same person. Generally, California prohibits the carrying of a concealed firearm in public or in a vehicle without a permit. Conduct that would normally violate Penal Code Section 12025 may be justified where a person possessing a concealable firearm reasonably believes that he or she is in grave danger because of circumstances forming the basis of a current court-issued restraining order against another person or persons who has or have been found to pose a threat to the possessor's life or safety. A U.S. citizen or legal resident over age 18 may carry any pistol, revolver, or other firearm capable of being concealed upon the person anywhere within his or her place of residence, place of business, or on private property owned or lawfully possessed by the citizen or legal resident. A permit is not required for persons to carry within these locations. However, any person who falls into a prohibited class, such as felons or people convicted of misdemeanor domestic violence, are prohibited from carrying in these locations as well. Penal Code Section 12025 does not prohibit any U.S. citizen over age 18 who resides or is temporarily in California, and does not fall into a prohibited class under California law, from transporting or carrying any concealable firearm, if: · The firearm is within a motor vehicle and it is locked in the vehicle's trunk or in a locked container (a secure container that is fully enclosed and locked by a padlock, key or combination lock, or similar locking device in the vehicle other than the utility or glove compartment and · The firearm is carried by the person directly to or from any motor vehicle for any lawful purpose and, while carrying the firearm, the firearm is contained within a locked container.
What is the difference between a bomb and a grenade?
There is no difference, they both do the same thing. Using the analogy of a gun (firearm) for example: a handgun, which is easily concealed upon a person, shoots a bullet; a grenade is equally concealable. An aerial bomb and a rifle (which shoots a bullet) are not easily concealable upon a person. The handgun is to grenade, as the rifle is to (an aerial) bomb.

How do you become a bounty hunter?
You have to ask the CIA. And they are called assassins now. _______________________________________________________ That is not true........It's called being a Privot Investigator..... Here is a small clip-it someone else wrote....... Age Requirements to be a Bounty Hunter From Derek Dallas, Texas Are there any age requirements to become a bounty hunter? ******************************************************************************* Derek, In TX, you must be at least 18 years old because that is the minimum age at which you can obtain a private investigator's license. Each state regulates bounty hunting differently- in states where a license is not required the bottom-line requirement will be 18 years of age because you must be of legal age to be assigned as an agent of the bail bondsman or surety upon the bail. This is very similar to a "Power of Attorney" and is only assignable to a person of "suitable age," which might as well read "adult." In some states that require licensing, the minimum age requirement is 21. It is also important to note that if you plan to carry a firearm while working, states will require that you are at least 21 years of age to obtain a concealed carry permit. Regardless of what you have been told or led to believe, you must follow all firearms laws of the states in which you are working! Just because we have an authorization to arrest a defendant given to us by a bail bondsman, we are not automatically entitled to posses a gun, either open-carry or concealed-carry. We are no different in this respect than any other private citizen unless our state issued license says otherwise! (Some states authorize a private investigator or bail agent licensee to carry a concealed firearm.) Lastly, if you are licensed and allowed to carry a concealed firearm in your state, then "concealed" means just that.. keep your weapon CONCEALED! It is typically only legal to brandish a firearm when your life or that of another is in imminent danger- making an apprehension doesn't qualify unless you can prove that you were in immediate danger. None of this is to be construed as legal advice! You are responsible for understanding and abiding by any laws that may apply to you in your situation! *******************************************************************************
