Brownells Launches Gunsmiths Web Site NSSF Creates Range Grant Program B rownells has launched www.gunsmiths.com, a Web site designed to “enrich and promote the trade.” Company officials say gunsmiths can boost their business by registering with the site’s gunsmith locator and find a job or an employee, all with free postings for resumes and job openings. They also can expand their knowledge with a number of features. “Brownells traces its roots to Dad’s gunsmithing,” said Frank Brownell, company chairman and CEO. “He used to say, ‘Show me a town without a gunsmith, and I’ll show you a town without hunters or shooters.’ We want to help gunsmiths in every town succeed.” The site features a gunsmith locator where customers can search for gunsmiths in their area or specialists throughout the country. The locator also has a five-star rating system that allows users to rate a shop. For more information, call 1-800-741-0015 or visit www. brownells.com. T he National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) has announced a new program designed to help local public and private ranges increase participation in the shooting sports. The Range Partnership Grant Program makes available $250,000 per year for projects that address one or more of the following objectives: recruitment of new shooters, reactivation of lapsed shooters and increased opportunities for active shooters to try another discipline. The NSSF, officials emphasize, is especially interested in new, creative approaches to these challenges. “This program was inspired by the success of our Hunting Heritage Partnership grant program, which funds recruitment and retention efforts conducted by state wildlife agencies,” said NSSF Senior Vice President Chris Dolnack. “We are confident this concept will also work for shooting ranges.” Eligible organizations are limited to public and private ranges and clubs, or educational institutions with hunting or shooting sports curriculums and faculty. Grant guidelines and applications are available at www. rangeinfo.org/grants. C M Y CM GIVES YOUR CUSTOMERS THE HOTTEST PEPPER SPRAY!
