No carry on Corps of Engineers land/water?

[Revolver]

As titled. Looks like federal law is no firearms including licensed CCers... Just want to make sure before I leave it :/

Yep. No loaded weapons on Core land except during hunting season and then it's rimfire and shotguns with slug only.

 

[Patronus]

Oh and muzzle loader during primitive season.

 

[JamesG]

Because they can.

Georgia Carry has sued the CoE over the ban and it is in the court system as of November of last year but I have no idea what's going on with it.

Oral Arguments were in Feb. These things take a lot of time to move through the courts. There has been no ruling on the appeal.

If you want to follow the case at GeorgiaPacking.org here (jrm is John Monroe, lead attorney for GCO, he frequently comments on the case when there is any news)

Cool thanks! GACarry is da bomb!

I live on West Point lake and the CoE gun ban is a chronic concern for me. The ranger and I were chatting one day and he was telling me about the drug deals and sex parties going on down there. Then there are the poachers ripping down the barriers and leaving skinned carcasses.

Meh... I only hit the corp property during deer season. Several locations to choose from in Lagrange. I prefer a small 350 acre spot tucked in off a back road.

Can't beat $20 a year!

It's 3 miles from my door to the ramp and back. That's my usual walk/jog route. Two and a quarter miles of that is on corps land.
