The Pearl River/Honey Island Shooting Range at Pearl River Wildlife Management Area (WMA) will re-open Friday (June 12) at 11 a.m., the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) announced.

Needed bridge repairs have been completed allowing access to the range through the cooperative efforts of LDWF, the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development and the Southeast Louisiana Firearms Safety Inc. (SELFS).

The range will be operating under Louisiana’s Phase-2 Covid-19 guidelines and restrictions until further notice. This may result in limited availability and users are asked to be patient, maintain their social distance and abide by all range safety officer directions.

Man I went out today with my wife and I don’t think I’ll be going back for a while. We got there around 8am and went straight to the pistol line. I had my wagon with me because I had lots of stuff to sight in, plus it has been a while since I’ve been.

We stayed at the pistol line for about an hour and a half. Then asked if we could go to the rifle. It was getting busy so the range officer asked for us to go back to the main station instead of going straight to the rifle line. No big deal.

We got back to the main station and they hand me a pad where I can write my name/number and he said go wait in your vehicle. He said he would call me when a spot was available.

I guess my fault for not knowing the new corona rules, but I had a wagon full of stuff and was not about to bring it back to my car, just to drag it out again. So I just called it a day. Kind of disappointing since it’s been so long and I spent a lot of time getting everything packed to go there.

If y’all are thinking about going, don’t bring a lot, and prepare to get there early.
