Commercial shooters, whether it be for advertising or entertainment purposes,
have to obtain permits to shoot in national parks. As far as I know, hobby
shooters don't have to obtain permits. I've shot cars in county parks without a
permit. The first time I did it I checked at the park office. I told them that
my profit margin was very thin, and I really couldn't afford a permit. They
said that in theory I should have a permit, but since it was a quick low-dollar
job, I should just shoot and make sure not to get in anyone's way or block
traffic. I never asked again. I just shoot and will apologize later if
necessary.
