Wyoming legislators came together under tough conditions to find a solution potentially authorizing the release of the imperiled funding for the Wyoming Shooting Sports Complex. The fix is budget neutral – targeting only a pre-existing source from 2023 authorizing legislation - potentially closing the legislative process for Wyoming Shooting Sports Complex on a high note.

A flagship range, the project would join a list of 833 public ranges supported by states nationwide. These ranges are made possible by your industry support for Pittman-Robertson.

NSSF® urges industry members to join in supporting this effort now and in the future. The Wyoming Shooting Sports Complex rivals similar State projects like Colorado’s Cameo, Arizona’s Ben Avery, Camp Perry, and other “flagship” ranges for Second Amendment enthusiasts.

Most members of the public, even elected leaders, are unaware that firearms industry taxes pay for up to 90% of these projects. Shooting sports, not hunting, is the major driver of that funding.

Let the public know – sport shooting pays. Hunters and shooters are the source of $1 billion annually that goes to habitat, education, and range development.
