Issue with leading credit card processor for firearms dealers

[Hayata]

Any other online sites having this issue?

Sounds like some liberal shenanigans at Blue Dog.

this is false, I just switched over to Blue Dog on Friday and they never mentioned anything. Also checked with some large companies before I switched and they didn't say anything as well

Gun grabbers are working over time on every angle right now. Fake News and propaganda to keep you from buying guns.

Cash is king! (don't know what it means, just wanted to say it)

If what Guns Midwest is claiming is true, there would be a lot more press on Blue Dog.

Several card companies are dropping gun sellers and pawn shops. Bank of America, pnc, capital one. Etc etc

Hmmm....just used my Capital One Venture card on Friday to buy a pistol...worked fine.

They are dropping FFL holders and pawn shops. They don't give two ****s what you buy. They drop business cards. Not for just gun purchases from everything. They close the accounts. Just google operation choke point. It is still in full force.

It is "Operation Choke Point" here is some information and the link.
Operation Choke Point was a 2013 initiative of the United States Department of Justice,[1] which would investigate banks in the United States and the business they do with firearm dealers, payday lenders, and other companies believed to be at higher risk for fraud and money laundering.

This operation, disclosed in an August 2013 Wall Street Journal story,[2] was officially ended in August 2017.[3]
Some merchant categories that the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation(FDIC) had listed until July 2014 as being associated with high-risk activity include (until the FDIC revised the original policy in July 2014):[4]
