Guns in the state parks?

How is Mounds an ACoE property?

Old thread is old...

Almost all Indiana State Parks are good to go.

One State Park, Falls of the Ohio, is no-go due to it being ACoE-controlled.

State Parks with Reservoirs are another legal sticky wicket. Carry is legal at the State Parks owned/controlled portions of those properties, but if the Reservoir is ACoE controlled, then the lake itself + several feet of elevation from the water surface is also ACoE controlled - and therefore off limits on a Federal level.

A FEW State Properties are now State Historic Sites and have somehow managed to finagle a loophole and are allowed to have a RULE against handguns/firearms on their property. Mounds is now a Historic Site and falls into this new category. RULE - not a law.

Just like before the State Park RULE was changed. It was a DNR administrative rule - not a LAW. In "recent times", it has always been legal to carry at a State Park - provided you're properly credentialed.

Just make sure the park is NOT one of the Army Corp of Engineers sites.....they have different rules.

Honestly, who shoots a snake?

Surly Rangers are also considered a no-no even if they provoke the action. However, they are rarely venomous and some of the female species are rather attractive if you stand back and admire them from a distance.
