Re: Firearms in Federal Park

Oh - it is a Corp. of Engineers park.
Just found this about gun regulations at US Army Corp. of Engineers parks?

http://www.swf.usace.army.mil/pubdata/o ... itle36.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

327.13 Explosives, firearms, other weapons and fireworks.
(a) The possession of loaded firearms, ammunition, loaded projectile firing devices, bows and arrows, crossbows, or other weapons is prohibited unless:
(1) In the possession of a Federal, state or local law enforcement officer;
(2) Being used for hunting or fishing as permitted under 327.8, with devices being unloaded when transported to, from or between hunting and fishing sites;
(3) Being used at authorized shooting ranges; or
(4) Written permission has been received from the District Commander.
(b) Possession of explosives or explosive devices of any kind, including fireworks or other pyrotechnics, is prohibited unless written permission has been received from the District Commander.

So, I guess I won't be able to protect myself this weekend.

Firearms in Federal Park

OK - just need a double check from the wise members of this board.

I am going camping this weekend in a Federal Park in Texas. I have a CHL. As I understand it, I am fine to bring my loaded, concealed handgun now.

The Obama administration has not been able to overturn the change instituted by Bush.

Correct?
