Gun Clubs / Shooting Ranges and Texas Open Carry

Post by tomneal »

How are your local gun clubs and shooting ranges reacting to Texas Licensed Open Carry?

I know of at least one that plans to post against licensed open carry at the range.

Any thoughts?

That's interesting. Mine doesn't blink at open carry inside the shop now (prepping for the range, etc) so I can't imagine they'll have an issue with it going forward.

Currently, my club only allows the club officers to OC. I have not yet heard if there will be a change in policy.

My range allows open carry, controlled rapid fire, and drawing from a holster.

However, I can understand why some ranges would want to restrict OC, especially during cease fires for safety reasons (at least for those ranges where cease fires are necessary to put up targets).
Keep calm and carry.
