Four pro-gun and pro-hunting measures have been sent to West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice and are currently awaiting his signature.

House Bill 2679 would allow a law-abiding person to carry a firearm in any state, county, or municipal park or other recreation area. The measure would also seek to expand Sunday hunting opportunities on private land with written permission, as would Senate Bill 345.

Senate Bill 388 would allow law-abiding citizens in possession of a concealed firearm to transport the firearm onto school property while dropping off or picking up students, as long as the firearm does not leave the motor vehicle. And Senate Bill 575 would protect sport shooting ranges from frivolous lawsuits and noise complaints.
