Michigan Benefits from Spending by Target Shooters

LAS VEGAS, Nev. — The National Shooting Sports Foundation has released a major new report about the importance of target shooting activities to the economies of Michigan and the nation. NSSF is the trade association for the firearms, ammunition, hunting and shooting sports industry.

The report, Target Shooting in America: Millions of Shooters,  Billions of Dollars, was released today in conjunction with a press  conference at the Shooting, Hunting and Outdoor Trade Show (SHOT Show), the  largest trade show of its kind in the world and a showcase for the firearms and  ammunition industry.

The report provides a  first-ever look at U.S. target shooting-related expenditures. Also included are  state-by-state statistics for the number of target shooters, retail sales,  taxes and jobs. The target-shooting report complements the Hunting in  America report released by NSSF and the Association of Fish & Wildlife  Agencies in March 2013.

In Michigan, target shooting-related spending contributed $726,643,476 to the state’s economy and supported 7,153 jobs.

Nationally, the money target shooters spent in 2011 resulted in $23 billion being added to the nation’s economy and supported more than 185,000 jobs. Read more
