How buying a gun in St. George works

Pick an FFL dealer near you that accepts shipped transfers and name it at checkout. We confirm their license and ship the firearm to them. Ammunition, optics and parts ship straight to your door where Utah law allows.

Utah has no purchase permit, registration or waiting period. A dealer sale uses ATF Form 4473, and the background check runs through the Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification. Federal ages apply: 18 for rifles and 21 for revolvers. Holders of a Utah concealed firearm permit can usually skip the separate check. The firearm ships to the Utah dealer you choose, who runs the check and completes the transfer.

Carrying a gun in Washington County

Utah has allowed permitless concealed carry since 2021 for adults 21 and older who can legally own a firearm. The optional concealed firearm permit is issued by the Bureau of Criminal Identification within the Department of Public Safety, with a provisional permit from 18. Many residents keep one for travel and for some school grounds. Secure areas and posted locations remain off limits.

Hunting near St. George

Utah's 2026 general-season buck deer hunts are archery from August 15, muzzleloader from September 23 to October 1, and any legal weapon from October 17 to 25. General-season permits are drawn by unit, and limited-entry hunts take more points. Rifles, muzzleloaders and archery gear are legal on the right hunt, and Utah requires centerfire cartridges of .22 caliber or larger with expanding bullets for big game. Check the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources guidebook.

St. George is in southwest Utah's Zion and Pine Valley deer units, with mule deer in the Pine Valley Mountains to the north. General-season permits are drawn by unit.

Desert ranges and BLM land surround the town, with the Pine Valley Mountains giving cooler deer country. Warm winters make it a busy place for cowboy action matches and long range shooting.

Public shooting ranges near St. George

The public ranges on the city pages are run or listed by a state wildlife agency, a state forest or a national forest, chosen by distance from each city. Fees, hours and allowed firearms are set by the agency or the club that manages the range.
