Shady Oaks Gun Range – Retail ProShop is Open. Keep an eye on this page for possible firing range hours.

KEN PAXTON, Attorney General of Texas, has removed any possible confusion:

“…SUMMARY Subsections 229.001(a) and 236.002(a) of the Local Government Code prohibit a municipality or county from adopting regulations related to the transfer, possession, or ownership of firearms, or commerce in firearms. These provisions apply to municipal and county regulation “notwithstanding any other law.” Thus, while municipal and county officials possess general emergency authority to control the movement of persons and the occupancy of premises in a local disaster area under Government Code section 418.108, such orders may not regulate or restrict the sale of firearms.”

“…Section 229.001 of the Local Government Code prohibits certain municipal regulation: Notwithstanding any other law, . . . a municipality may not adopt regulations relating to:

(1) the transfer, possession, wearing, carrying, ownership, storage, transportation, licensing, or registration of firearms, air guns, knives, ammunition, or firearm or air gun supplies or accessories;

(2) commerce in firearms, air guns, knives, ammunition, or firearm or air gun supplies or accessories; or

(3) the discharge of a firearm or air gun at a sport shooting range.
