Default Possible Careers

Hey guys I love hunting and guns and everything associated with the two. I am wondering what are some possible careers I could get into where I could be associated with these on a daily basis. Maybe working for a firearms company or something along those lines. Any tips, stories or input would be greatly appreciated as I am starting to think about college. Thanks a ton.

I went through gunsmithing trade school. You might consider that instead of college but I'd strongly recommend finishing college so you could aspire to be gunwriter or something of the sort.

Sales. I made a ton of money doing it. And got to work in an industry that I dearly love. Get your degree in marketing. And try to get a job as a manufacturers rep., or for a mfr. rep. group. It is a great life. Definitely finish college first. You will not regret that. But start making connections now. Go to work part time in the biggest sporting goods retailer you can drive to. Get some sales experience. When you go to the job interviews--DO NOT TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER. Tom.

A comment on what head said "Do not take no for an answer" He is right. WHen you want something pursue it and get it. They tell you know keep going back, keep pushing and showing that you want it bad. Its worked twice for me!
