Ineed Info Quick On carrying In Parks

[mr.72]

Are the laws quoted in that letter separate from those recently repealed?

All that was changed is National Parks.

US Army COE lands are not National Parks. Neither are post offices.

You can take this for what it's worth. I called Eisenhower State Park. The park ranger stated you can carry in the park under CHL authority. If he stops you for speeding you have to show your CHL just as with any LEO. Then I called the COE at the Denison Dam, she stated you can not carry on any corp property which we knew, then I questioned her about Eisenhower, which she stated that would fall under their rules even though leased from the Corp. If true, that would also make all of Lake Ray Roberts a carry area.

So, if I interpret what you were told correctly, the rules would no longer be Corp, but the those of the entity that is controlling the property? That is interesting as there are several parks that are leased from the COE, but ran and maintained by a separate entity like the State or a City. Maybe we can get the State to take over all of the Corp lakes in the area.

With the confusion from the first two, I talked to the Tulsa District Headquarters operations guy which covers Lake Texoma. This may be old hat to some, but seeing as I am still new at this, reading it helps. "Title 36 Rules and Regulations" prohibit carrying unless to be used for hunting or fishing. Leased land or not. COE land = no CHL. The guys and gals at the local offices need to learn the laws or quit quoting them.

OK, I misunderstood. This is the way I have always understood it too, so as you say, COE=No CHL.
