Unfortunately I am licensed to carry in about 40 States and California is not one of them! My Kahr .40 may not be far away!
Oh Man, does that bring back memories.
Back in the late 70's I was stationed at Alameda Naval Station, drove a 1977 Honda CB750, we'd go down and camp at the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir, drive through Yosemite, down to the General Sherman Tree, sometimes on to Death Valley.
I'm sure much of this has changed over the last 30+ years.
