    Default Can I carry here...

    http://www.fish.state.pa.us/water/la...un/00glade.htm

    This lake is like our back yard. I can't tell by the description if it is considered a state park. Would it be OK to carry there?

    Located in Butler County, Glade Run Lake is a 52-acre impoundment owned by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and managed by the Fish and Boat Commission for public fishing and boating.
    I'd say that makes it a state park/lake. I wouldn't carry there.

    Nope, State Parks are "owned/managed" by the DCNR, not the Fish and Boat commission. I'd carry there.

    Yep - Definitely not a State Park.

    From their "property regulations"

    "The carrying or use of firearms on Fish & Boat Commission properties is prohibited except while lawfully hunting or trapping. This does not apply to those individuals licensed to carry firearms under 18 Pa. C.S. 6109 (licenses) or those individuals authorized to do so in conformance with 18 Pa. C.S. 6106 (firearms not to be carried without a license)".

    Looks like you're fine to carry with your LTCF.

    I'd argue OC is ok too since it is " in conformance with 18 Pa. C.S. 6106 "

    Thanks alot guys. This lake is quite literally in our back yard. If you walk 10 steps past the grass you're on their property, so it's very important to make sure we can legally carry there.

    I heard the meeting you guys went to to make sure we can carry in parks EVERYWHERE and I appreciate all that you've done for us despite the emotional rantings of paranoid morons.

    You are also allowed to discharge firearms within the township provided you have an appropriate backstop. It's a nice place to live.
