I'l make it short and simple.
I own 5 acres and my neighbor owns 7. We share a fence line and we would both like to shoot on our property.
We came up with maybe possibly combining both our properties which would give us our 10+ acres.
Where should we start in order to make this legally happen?
That is def an idea, a good one at that, but... I still feel like we need to take some sort of legal action.
Sounds like that settles it.I found this...

Incorrect. One can discharge a firearm in Kerrville. Of course, not across your property line but the simple discharge of a firearm is NOT against the law in Kerrville. How much property you own does not have anything to do with the discharge. Trust me, I know this to be a fact ........... in Kerrville. If you live in Kerrville city limits and shoot a skunk on your lot, you have not violated any law.The 10 acre rule only applies to state preemption (county cannot regulate property over ten acres). If your county does not regulate shooting, you can shoot on your five acres, just can’t let bullets cross property line. You of course cannot be in a city limits.
This ^^^^^ Counties and cities have different laws all over the state.There is section in the Government code that says what counties can restrict. Even if the county can, it may not do it. Check county ordinances. If there isn't one, all you need is each others written permission.
Best method.
Check with a local attorney.
Before you do anything!!
