Which code does this activity belong in?

NAICS 423910 covers merchant wholesalers distributing sporting goods, accessories, billiard and pool supplies, sporting firearms and ammunition, and marine pleasure craft with equipment. The boundary with toy and hobby goods merchant wholesalers lies in the nature of the merchandise: recreational items designed for athletic competition or water-based leisure are classified here, while toys and hobby items intended primarily for play or collection are classified in the toy and hobby goods category. Marine pleasure craft and related supplies remain in sporting and recreational goods wholesale even though they serve leisure purposes.
