A hunting license does nothing to change the state laws on buying a hand gun. The other poster gave you the link to the DFG website. That has all the rules and regs there. If you want to hunt with a pistol, as long as you are with an adult, you can. There is one other little know trick to getting a handgun in California. If you are over 18 years old, you can have a family member give you one legally. Look at the CA Department of Justice for the Interfamilial Firearms Transfer form. Or something like that. You have them buy the gun, and fill out the form. Then you go to a gun store and do a Private Party Transfer. The handgun is then legally yours, and you can do anything with it that somebody over 21 would be able to do with it. Unfortunately, you can’t buy handgun ammunition until you are 21 either…
