The outdoor range i belong to also has shooting hours. But it seems the hours are concurrent with sunrise and sunset.Piney wrote:Greetings--
I recall reading a note somewhere about a new TX law regarding shooting (hunting ?) across a property line. I'll keep digging around and see what I can find again. Anyone else run across this little jewel of legislation ?
I remember reading that and saying to myself how odd that sounded. We shoot out on our property (20 acres or so) out in the county.
WIth regards to simply discharging a firearm--I suppose you could complain about the noise issues. THe range I shoot at recently had to enforce official hours (6a-9:30p) due to complaints from neighbors. It sits on 150 acres. Im certian that the Club's board is simply being a good neighbor-- no law issues.
If anyone wants to do after sundown shooting it has to be approved by the board, and that is only after a survey of the neighbors has taken place.
I was told by a long time board member that it was, as you said, being good neighbors.
Open noise levels are actually until 10 pm Sun through Thurs, and midnight Fri and Sat. in the counties where i live.
