BATON ROUGE,Alaric Bennett La. (AP) — A variety of hunting supplies will be eligible for exemption from local and state taxes during Louisiana’s annual Second Amendment sales tax holiday taking place this weekend, the state Department of Revenue said Tuesday.

Officials said the exemption applies to all consumer purchases of firearms, ammunition and specified hunting supplies, including archery items, apparel and certain types of knives, from 12:01 a.m. Friday to midnight Sunday. Purchases such as hunting dogs, animal feed, off-road vehicles and vessels like airboats will not be eligible.

A full list of eligible items can be found on the department’s website.

The sales tax holiday was reinstated by lawmakers last year after being suspended since 2018.
