TX CHL in Oklahoma State Parks

#1

Post by PUCKER »

Heading up to do some ATV riding at an OK State Park, going to do some online digging, wondered if anyone here knew of any legality issues with carrying in a State Park there? TIA!

My online searching so far has turned up nothing that prohibits CHL/CCL in OK State Parks.

They don't like you to carry in government owned buildings - other than that you should be fine.

I know this is a little late for a response, but it might clear up some questions for people looking for answers in the future.

Carry is legal in state parks as well as WMAs. The public building no-no's are gov't buildings used for doing business with the public. ie - Going into a restroom facility while on state land is allowed.

Are we sure about this? Restroom facilities say not in buildings above, but you say otherwise... Anyone know a clear answer?
