This is easy...don’t use your Discover card and the gun retailers don’t accept Discover. Simple.

Yep. Very simple, very easy and I can't imagine that gun retailers would lose much, if any, in sales after informing customers *why* they no longer take Discover.

If you have decent credit, these companies are begging you to get their cards. There is no good reason to hold on to a Discover card. I have two Capital One cards, one for business the other personal. They send me new offers a couple of times a month. Kinda nuts. I logged on to the personal use one a couple of weeks ago and punched in that I wanted another $10k on my credit limit. It was approved in 15 seconds. We've never used the limit we had, but I wanted more for unforeseen emergencies.

And don’t use the code. Use General Merchandize.
Someone has to plug it in and I assume it’s at the point of sale.

Guess I will be paying that one off early and cutting it up.

When do they initiate a special code for MJ, Fentanyl, and other drug purchases?
“Adult” books, Porn, BDSM, and other sex toys?

Cut up your Discover cards, and let them know why.

I paid cash, and buy from estate sales. And then that terrible boating accident where ALL my firearms were lost at sea.

For the time being. There is a reason why they’re coming after cash.
