The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) has filed a federal lawsuit challenging Contra Costa County, California, over three concealed-carry bans that strike at common defensive handguns and accessories: red dot sights, weapon-mounted lights, and single-action-only 1911/2011-style pistols.
SAF says the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office bars local CCW permit holders from carrying handguns equipped with red dots or mounted lights and separately bans SAO 1911- and 2011-style pistols from being carried under county-issued permits.
These are ordinary tools millions of Americans use to carry responsibly. Red dots help shooters make accurate hits. Weapon lights help identify threats before a trigger is pressed. The 1911 platform is one of the most proven defensive handguns in American history. The complaint calls red dots and lights “popular, safety-enhancing attachments,” and that is exactly what they are.
The lawsuit names Contra Costa County, the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office, and Sheriff David Livingston in his official capacity. SAF is joined by two Contra Costa County residents and carry permit holders, Andrew Moore and James Treuel. Both men say they are legally licensed, both want to carry handguns with modern defensive features, and both are blocked by the sheriff’s policies.
