Guns ship to a licensed dealer near you22 cities
Order online, pick up at a licensed dealer in Brazos County. College Station grew up around Texas A&M University in the Brazos Valley, joined to Bryan on the north side, with the Brazos River bottom a few miles west. Highway 6 runs the length of both towns.
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 Texas law allows.
Texas asks for no permit to purchase, no registration and no state waiting period. At a licensed dealer you show photo identification, complete ATF Form 4473 and the dealer runs a federal background check through NICS; a current Texas License to Carry can stand in for that check at most dealers. Federal law sets the dealer minimum at 18 for rifles and shotguns and 21 for handguns. Private sales between Texas residents need no state background check, though selling to someone you know is barred from owning a firearm is a crime.
Dealers in these communities all work for College Station-area buyers:
Since September 1, 2021, the Firearm Carry Act has let adults 21 and older who may lawfully own a firearm carry a handgun in Texas without a license, concealed or in a belt or shoulder holster, unless a conviction in the past five years for assault, deadly conduct, terroristic threat or certain disorderly conduct offenses bars them. The License to Carry is still issued statewide by the Texas Department of Public Safety, not by a county office. It costs $40, runs five years, and takes four to six hours of classroom instruction plus a range qualification with a certified instructor.
Texas Parks and Wildlife Department sets deer seasons county by county. Harris County and the rest of the Gulf Coast and East Texas sit in the North Zone, where archery runs October 3 to November 6, 2026, the general season runs November 7, 2026 to January 3, 2027, and the muzzleloader and special late seasons run January 4 to 17, 2027. The bag is four deer, no more than two bucks and no more than two antlerless, and in Brazos County only one buck may have an inside spread of 13 inches or more. Any legal firearm is allowed except rimfire ammunition, which may not be used on deer.
Brazos County is in the North Zone for deer and the Central dove zone, with a four-deer bag and the 13-inch antler rule. The Brazos and Navasota river bottoms on either side of the county are hog ground, and dove shooting over milo and sunflower opens September 1.
The bottom below Wellborn and Millican holds hogs and whitetail on leases, Lake Somerville is southeast, and the Gibbons Creek and Navasota bottoms east of town are working farm and ranch country.
