Gun enthusiasts in Mississippi will have the chance to purchase discounted items this weekend as the state’s annual Second Amendment Sales Tax Holiday will be underway.
From Friday through Sunday, shoppers can avoid paying the pesky sales tax on certain items including firearms, ammunition, and certain hunting supplies.
But some items will not be eligible for the discount. Those looking to purchase hunting apparel, toy guns, and cases or bags for firearms or ammunition this weekend will have to pay the sales tax tacked on by retailers.
According to officials, non-eligible items included with eligible items in a bundled transaction must be itemized separately and taxed accordingly when purchased. Otherwise, the entire purchase is taxable.
Sales of eligible items that were placed or ordered by mail, phone, or the internet are not subject to sales tax if the purchaser orders and pays for the items during the holiday and the items are accepted by the seller for immediate shipment. Eligibility will be lost if the purchaser requests or causes delayed shipment of the item.
