Reviewed 08/30/2006 | This site needs to updated - This range is on military base. Since 911 the regs. have changed. Especially dealing with firearms. Unless the gun is registered at the Provost Marshall's office, it is nearly impossible to bring an unregistered firearm on base. Your vehicle and personal's will undergo a complete search if you are a civilian and especially with an un-registered firearm. Also, Gate 6 is now closed to South Boundary Road.
Webmaster's note:
This reviewer sounds knowledgable about the gate being closed, but you should be able to enter with a shotgun. I have attended many shoots on military bases since 911. When I googled for the rules at Fort Sill, I found this at http://sill-www.army.mil/des/V=W%20registration.htm
Q: When entering Fort Sill, do I tell the access control personnel at the gates about my weapon?
A: Yes, and provide additional information regarding the transportation of both registered and unregistered weapons as required by law enforcement personnel. All military and civilian employees working on Fort Sill will register their firearms with the Directorate of Emergency Services (DES), prior to using them on Fort Sill. Guests participating in sporting events/activity such as skeet, trap, hunting, and marksmanship events are not required to comply with this registration requirement. However, they will transport their weapons by the most direct route to and from the range when entering and leaving the military installation. |
