My friend Don just told me he was at a local gun shop and was buying some 9mm ammo. He gave the owner his Chase debit card. The owner told him he couldn't use the card for payment. Don thought it was because the owner assumed it was a credit card. Don told him it was a debit card. The shop owner then told Don it was because Chase Bank will not honor gun or ao purchases with their credit and debit cards
Has anyone elserun into this problem?
Has anyone else run into this?

It’s a hoax. You can use it.
No problems here, and I have spent in excess of 10k on such items in the last year.
You are correct on all points!
As retailer, I do trade shows (gun shows), there is a problem. You can use your credit card/debit card to make purchases, but the PROCESSOR determine whether or not that payment gets processed through. If they are anti-gun, and you sell a gun or ammo, they CAN withold the payment for that transaction as a penalty for breaking the users agreement. The customer gets the product, but the retailer does not get paid. If you as a retailer fraudulently mark the purchase as something other than firearm or firearm associated, and the customer then makes a claim against you, then you have committed fraud, which is also covered in the agreement. I will only do business now with companies that use a 2nd Amendment friendly card PROCESSOR, and I do not use BOA or Chase Bank credit cards to make purchases. That’s just me..
