It very much is, my wife tells me every year at tax time we need more write on and less write off! But it is a way for me to give back to a community (2A) that has been so good to me and my family for years. Being a sponsored shooter is like a dream come true, I get to do what I love. But mentoring and teaching a new generation that will follow is just really really cool. We are seeing a very large percentage of LEO applicants now that have zero firearms experience. On plus side they got no bad habits! But it is a telling indicator of the change in our society norm. If folks like us do not pass it down hunting and fishing will become a lost art. I gotta stop right here or I will spin off into a political rant and the moderators will step in and crush the thread, as they should. We have went several years now without getting tossed into the NP section which I think is amazing and a credit to all the guys on here. Lord knows 2A is a polarizing political topic and we are all passionate about it.my sincere thanks to all y’all for keeping it clean! (No politics)
