Not sure if you mean Pittman–Robertson.

This is a 11% tax imposed by Sportsmen on Sportsmen for firearms and ammo earmarked only for wild life restoration. It's one of the few federal taxes that do what it was supposed to do. The money flows back via State F&G departments.

The Gun Grabbers have been trying to steal the money for years and little chance they will stop. Even if you dislike the tax, keep an eye for this happening again.

For Fishermen, there is Dingell–Johnson.

When a similar program was proposed for non-consumptive users of the outdoors on backpacks, tents and so forth, the response was "Nope"
