The town takes its name from a former road, Gun Barrel Lane (which is now ]), as well as its motto, "We Shoot Straight with You" and its symbol (a rifle).


The town began as an ] known as the "Old Bethel Community" in the 1960s after completion of ]. It was incorporated in the late 1960s so it could legally sell beer and wine. The town takes its name from a former road, Gun Barrel Lane (which is now ]), and has as its motto, "We Shoot Straight with You", and its symbol—a rifle with two crossed antique pistols after having to remove ] as its unofficial mascot on its signs along the road at the town limits. Gun Barrel Lane is rumored to have gotten its name during the 1920s and 1930s when Jesse Daniels frequented the area. It was considered a safe backwoods place during ] when the likes of ] and ] hung out in the area. The road got its name for simply being "straight as a gun barrel" for 2&nbsp;mi between US Hwy 175 and Texas Hwy 334 to the south.
Gun Barrel City gained national attention in May 2000 by electing recent college graduate and then newspaper owner/publisher Tye Thomas as Mayor. Thomas was 21 years old at the time of his election. While the first few months of Thomas' administration were marked by significant accomplishment, widespread support, and national media attention, community support began to diminish when Henderson County District Attorney Donna R. Bennett and Texas Ranger Steve Foster launched an investigation focusing on Thomas. The allegations included misuse of city equipment and perjury.


Gun Barrel City was formed in the 1960s. Not long after Cedar Creek Lake (a reservoir for the Tarrant Regional Water District) completed construction, the fledgling community that sat on its banks took steps to officially become a town.
A Henderson County Grand Jury indicted Thomas in April 2001 for one count of misdemeanor (Class A) perjury. The same week, Thomas was arrested for public intoxication - a Class C misdemeanor. He entered a plea of no contest and paid a $350 fine.


Gun Barrel City was incorporated on May 26, 1969. Since then, it has grown into a main hub and access point for visitors to Cedar Creek Lake. In addition to the high level of tourism that the community experiences (particularly during the summer boating season), Gun Barrel City and the surrounding communities have experienced a residential building boom over the past several years. This growth has largely been led by the relocation of retirees from throughout the ] region, building lake homes to take advantage of Gun Barrel City's lake access. {{Citation needed|date=March 2017}}
A few weeks later, after serving 54 weeks in office, Thomas resigned as mayor. All criminal charges associated with the Texas Ranger investigation were dismissed. Mayor Pro-Tem Bob Bennington was elevated to the office of mayor after Thomas' resignation. Thomas moved to Dallas in 2002.

Gun Barrel City is a town in Henderson County, Texas, United States. Its population was 6,190 at the 2020 census, an increase over the figure of 5,672 tabulated in 2010.

History

The town began as an unincorporated community known as the "Old Bethel Community" in the 1960s after completion of Cedar Creek Reservoir. It was incorporated in the late 1960s so it could legally sell beer and wine. The town takes its name from a former road, Gun Barrel Lane (which is now State Highway 198), and has as its motto, "We Shoot Straight with You", and its symbol—a rifle with two crossed antique pistols after having to remove Yosemite Sam as its unofficial mascot on its signs along the road at the town limits. Gun Barrel Lane is rumored to have gotten its name during the 1920s and 1930s when Jesse Daniels frequented the area. It was considered a safe backwoods place during Prohibition when the likes of Clyde Barrow and Bonnie Parker hung out in the area. The road got its name for simply being "straight as a gun barrel" for 2 mi between US Hwy 175 and Texas Hwy 334 to the south.

Gun Barrel City was formed in the 1960s. Not long after Cedar Creek Lake (a reservoir for the Tarrant Regional Water District) completed construction, the fledgling community that sat on its banks took steps to officially become a town.

Gun Barrel City was incorporated on May 26, 1969. Since then, it has grown into a main hub and access point for visitors to Cedar Creek Lake. In addition to the high level of tourism that the community experiences (particularly during the summer boating season), Gun Barrel City and the surrounding communities have experienced a residential building boom over the past several years. This growth has largely been led by the relocation of retirees from throughout the Dallas region, building lake homes to take advantage of Gun Barrel City's lake access.

In May 2000, Gun Barrel City voters elected their 13th mayor, 21-year-old entrepreneur and newspaper publisher Randal Tye Thomas. He resigned after community outcry in May 2001 following a grand jury indictment for one count of misdemeanor perjury and in the same week being arrested by the Gun Barrel City Police Department for public intoxication. All criminal charges were eventually dismissed. Thomas and the community were featured in many local, state, and national publications and programs, including a feature story in Texas Monthly and a feature interview on the nationwide NPR program This American Life. Thomas moved to the Dallas area in 2002, and died in 2014.

In 2008, Gun Barrel City received the coveted Certified Retirement Community recognition from the Texas Department of Agriculture's Go Texan program. The community has also received recognition from the governor's office, receiving second place on two separate occasions in the governor's Community Achievement Awards.
