If a state truly cares about one's right to self defense they would incentivize gun training by offering vouchers, or a day's wage refund to attend courses that teach various degrees of gun safety and handling, and reimbursements/incentives on gun safes that conform to regulations.
Adding a fee on top of what's generally an expensive purchase and making it a recurring payment is just to price people out of self defense, and criminalize/fine people that wanted to do so.
