The Youth Shooting Sports Alliance (YSSA) recently announced that O.F. Mossberg & Sons, Inc. has continued their support of the YSSA with a generous donation of 42 new Mossberg shotguns.
Mossberg has been a leader in introducing important design breakthroughs to the firearm industry since 1919. Included among the donated firearms are a large diversity of Model 500, 535 and 835 shotguns in various camo patterns. These new firearms will be sold on GunBroker.com – the web’s largest hunting and sport shooting auction – to generate the funds needed to purchase equipment and supplies in support of YSSA selected priority youth shooting sports programs.
Tom Taylor, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Mossberg, states “We have enjoyed our relationship with the Youth Shooting Sports Alliance and share their passion for assisting in the recruitment and retention of new shooters and hunters.
We are particularly proud of the selection of Mossberg shotguns by YSSA as a dominant segment of their Shooting Sports Equipment Loan Program firearm inventory which is used by youth programs nationwide.”
“The YSSA’s Donated Firearms Program provides an opportunity for sportsmen and women to donate their old guns and help the YSSA build the next generation of shooters” said Joe Murfin, President of YSSA. Murfin added “It may be just your old gun, but put in the right hands, it can help sustain the sport of shooting while strengthening the core values of the next generation of shooters and hunters.”
