Plinking on a private property?

Check the county regulations. In sac county, there are areas within the county where you can’t shoot. In addition, you have to be 150 yards from a structure (house, shed, barn, etc). Neighbors can call and complain about the noise. You can’t shoot over a road. You would probably need at least 10 acres? In addition to a dirt back stop, I’d put some type of bullet trap out for easy disposal of lead.

Start with a google search of the City and shooting

Call local PD and ask them about local city, county or state ordinances/ rules

Look for a forum that covers where you want to buy

Condor zone and shotgun only areas up there as well. Curious to what info you find out.

No you can't. That is all L.A. County so you are flat out of luck on plinking but I believe you can hunt.

Look to Kern County which is also in the Antelope Valley.

Good luck!

If it works out, a lot of CGers will be your best friend.

Half a mile by half a mile is only 160 acres. Ouch.

This should be made into a flyer and posted at all the minimarts and crack houses in La County. Maybe the bad guys will read it and stop breaking this law. Oh wait the problem is guns how silly of me to blame people who break the law.

Having private property to shoot on is the greatest thing on the planet. Do whatever you can to make it happen. You'll make lots of friend who will kiss your ***.

Check all the regulations, county, city, and state, but do it discreetly - it's usually better to ask forgiveness than to seek permission.

You are probably going to have a hard time finding property to shoot on in SOCAL within a reasonable commute distance to/from Santa Clarita...you could always buy some small plot out in the middle of the desert for cheap though.

Kern County may be your best option though...

He said no neighbors. He won't be shooting in the general direction of habitation. Don't you people read OP's?
