Elimination of sales tax on firearms.
This bill eliminates the state sales tax on firearms and ammunition purchased in Wyoming. It creates a new tax exemption for these items under existing sales and use tax laws, effective July 1, 2025. The exemption applies to all buyers purchasing firearms or ammunition subject to Wyoming's tax code, directly affecting consumers and retailers selling these products. The change removes a financial cost at the point of sale but does not alter firearm ownership laws or definitions.
