‘Muslim-free’ gun range closes in Oklahoma

BY CAMERON JENKINS

(THE HILL) Owners of an Oklahoma gun range that once claimed to be “Muslim-free” have announced that they will be selling the property after facing a lawsuit from a local Muslim resident that has lasted several years.

In a Facebook post, the owners of Save Yourself Gun Club announced the sale of their two-acre property located in Muskogee County.

Leaders of a Muslim community near the gun range began celebrating the move last week. Adam Soltani, director of the Council on American Islamic Relations’ Oklahoma chapter, shared his thoughts on the closure on Facebook.

“Well, well, well. What do we have here? Looks like hate does not pay after all,” Soltani wrote. “The same gun range we took to court in a federal lawsuit for banning Muslims by declaring itself a ‘Muslim-Free Establishment’ is no more.”
