stop the paypal

Hmmmmm.......I went to renew my NRA membership and they have a Paypal link to pay for it. NRA Renew/Upgrade Membership

I would think if Paypal were big time anti gun that the NRA wouldn't be using their services? Just a thought.
 
I'll use them often as can. No better way to stick it to someone than to do it and call it a gift lol. Just use your card as a debit card. Works same way
 
paypal is part of or was started by the same people as ebay. ebay is not gun friendly but they will take our money. paypal is not gun friendly either, but they too will take our money.

why the NRA accepts paypal is a conundrum to me. it makes it easy for people to pay and that may increase the number of members. but paypal is NOT pro-gun.

let paypal know that you are buying / selling ammo or guns with your paypal account and see what they do. trust me, you wont like it.
 
from the paypal website:


For example, using PayPal, you can’t buy or sell:

Any firearm, including rifles, shotguns, and handguns, whether they’re for sport and recreation, collectibles, or curio or relic firearms.
Firearm parts, including but not limited to receivers and frames, silencers, and kits designed to modify guns so that they fire automatically. High capacity magazines, multi-burst trigger activators, and camouflaging firearm containers are other items in this category.
Ammunition, including propellants like gunpowder or blank ammunition; ammunition or cartridge cases; and primers, bullets, or propellant powder designed for any firearm.
 
PayPal will actually investigate your transactions if you have too many similar ones, like selling parts, guns or ammo on Gunbroker. Then they will cancel your account. Happened to a buddy of mine last year, he had to promise not to use them for firearm related transactions in order to get reinstated.

That could be construed as anti gun but it also can be good policy to limit liability. All the items listed have laws in place either limiting them or out right laws against some of them in some states.

Its easy for one to forget that they are a payment company and are a middleman between the seller and actual buyer. For that reason I can see why they don't want to involve themselves in transactions for firearms, high cap mags, special triggers that replicate full auto fire. Fraud is so prevalent in today's society companies have to be very careful especially when it could involve some guy with the BATFE up your azz with a microscope.

Would you risk money and your FFL by sending a brand new Benelli to some other "apearently legit" FFL for a guy named fraudulentbill@hotformail.com? He's even got a fake checking account built off of hot checks he wrote off someone else's account.

I don't necessarily view their policy as anti gun. I view it as more of a "we're not going to involve ourselves in transactions of restricted items" policy.
 

I was afraid this might go this direction. You guys are making this too complicated. It was not a political question.

I was simply asking if anyone can recommend a RELOADING seller. Not ammo. Not guns. not ammo parts. Not gun parts.

I want to buy TOOLS which in no way shape or form are against PayPal policy. The reason I want to use Paypal is my own business.

I was hoping someone would recommend a place, but that's ok, I have other options.
 
I don't do a lot of buying any longer, but have found excellent items and prices at Natchez Shooting Supplies...I've never used Pay Pal so don't know about any businesses and their acceptance of it.. Another location to check is Graf & Sons..The have carried a large supply of reloading equipment for many years...
 
! But can't you just pay with your bank card? PayPal is owned by EBay, which is antigun. Except not anti gun parts, just another liberal antigun stand, unless they can make money on it.

No
 
I won't use PayPal. Period. Beside their clear anti-gun agenda, years ago when I had an account with them and used it on ebay, I got a call one morning, asking if I had authorized an $1100 transfer from my PayPal account. I, of course, had not, and said so. I was told that my account had been hacked and my credit card that was being used to back the PayPal account had been hacked.

I immediately closed the account. I won't use them. Period. They cannot be trusted, in my estimation.
