Tax free weekend coming up

[redaddiction]

Just saw a commercial for what's called the second amendment tax free weekend coming up on Sept. 6, 7, & 8.

Includes the following:

Guns and ammunition
Game feed and decoys
Safety gear, bags and camoflage
Knives, bows and arrows
Boats and off-road vehicles

That's a pretty nice savings for those of you that may want a new boat!

Governor Jindal said, “This is a great opportunity for all hunters and campers to save money on the equipment they need to enjoy Sportsman’s Paradise. The weekend-long event will also bring more customers to our local hunting and sporting stores which will further benefit our businesses and Louisiana’s economy.”

A wide range of supplies is eligible for exemption from all state and local sales taxes. Eligible items include:

Shotguns, rifles, pistols, revolvers or other handguns
Ammunition intended to be fired from a gun or firearm
Accessories designed to be used for hunting
Apparel such as safety gear, camouflage clothing, jackets, hats, gloves, mittens, face masks and thermal underwear for use while hunting
Off-road vehicles such as all-terrain vehicles designed for hunting. The exemption does not apply to golf carts, bikes, motorcycles, tractors, or motor vehicles which may be legally driven on highways
In 2009, Governor Jindal signed a bill into law authorizing an annual “sales tax holiday” for the purchase of firearms, ammunition and hunting supplies

Visit www.revenue.louisiana.gov/secondamendment for more information including the full list of eligible items and special provisions of this sales tax holiday.

So optics such as a range finder aren't included?

I am fairly sure there is a "cap" on the max amount that is tax free.

I normally have stuff listed on my FB page. I haven't been listing much lately though because I haven't had much time to "play" with the other company. It's slowing down in the collision world right now so, I'll be updating soon.
