I just bought 80 acres in unincorporated Douglas County south of I20 and east of Sweetwater park. I am would like to set up a pistol and a rifle range there.
These are the only regulations I could find. Does anyone know of any prohibitions other than not discharging near a road or dwelling in unincorporated Douglas County
