California Weapons Offenses

Not all weapons charges involve guns. In fact, California law leaves the term "deadly weapon" open to some interpretation, as it is defined as an instrument that may cause grave bodily injury or death. As such, a knife, blunt object, or even a fist could be deemed a deadly weapon under California law.
