Fudds Vs Gun grabbers

[jsbhike]

Most fudds don’t realize that shooters fund their ability to enjoy the outdoors via the Pittman Robertson act funding. A 10-11% tax is levied on guns and ammo and then invested back into conservation. Now - I like public lands and I used to hunt more, now I just fish. So I’m not saying this is a total negative.

The tax revenue on 2 cases of 223 is more than the annual box of .30-06. So if they would just accept this fact and be quiet about what we do with all that ammo, that would be nice too.

Can't find it at the moment, but seems like the tax fund was being directly used to fund anti 2nd Amendment programs several years back.

Things like this are promising, but we’ll see

Something I was just thinking of about Fudds is almost all of the stuff they think should be .gov only(short barrels, magazine fed repeaters, self loaders, suppressors, compact guns, collapsible/take down guns, etc.) were well received by the private market prior to interest from .gov, sometimes decades before.

ISTR that before NFA, SBR and SBS were specifically marketed for defense against carjacking and burglars... even the notorious Tommy gun enjoyed widespread use with bank guards and corporate security, no less than the New York Times owning two for the purpose.
