State and regional fish and wildlife representatives from across the country recently visited SIG SAUER, Inc. headquarters and the SIG SAUER Academy in New Hampshire. These groups came to see the firearm manufacturing process. This would help them understand how guns and ammo excise taxes fund a sizable portion of modern conservation agency jobs, research, habitat projects, equipment, and technology.

Gun Industry Funds Wildlife Conservation
One of the most significant funding sources for conservation derives from firearm, ammunition, fishing and archery equipment manufacturers through the Wildlife and Sport Fish Restoration program. Nearly $1.1 billion in funding is generated annually.

Participants toured the manufacturing facility, seeing every step of the manufacturing process – they even tested the firearms at SIG SAUER Academy. This collaborative event was made possible through the Partner With A Payer Initiative, which connects state and federal agency staff to the manufacturers whose products generate excise taxes, enabling vital conservation work throughout the USA.

Major partners of this tour include the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), NSSF — The Firearm Industry Trade Association, and Council to Advance Hunting and the Shooting Sports (CAHSS). The event was featured as part of the annual National R3 Symposium that focuses on the the recruitment, retention, and reactivation of target shooters and hunters. That in turn helps the represented agencies increase conservation funding via excise taxes.

MCX-Spear Rifle Features Short Barrel and Suppressor
