Starting July 1, all small firearms and ammunition bought in West Virginia will no longer contain a sales tax.

“If you are going to buy that $2,000 riffle, it’s going to be $120 cheaper here in West Virginia than compared to our neighboring states,” said Delegate Gary Howell, (R) District 56.

This law was formed in House Bill 2499, which was passed during this year’s legislative session to promote business by exempting sales taxes for consumers.


 
Looks like they're going the business-friendly route too.
I can see this attracting manufacturers from tax heavy state, like any one in the northeast.
Not too long ago, there was a link to either the state website, or a town in the state, that was offering up to 10 or 12 grand for people to relocate there.
