I don't know but in my state you must pass a FBI background check to buy one. Criminals don't buy from gun stores anyway according to statistics. Most of the guns used in crimes are stolen & bought on the black market. Black market gun sales are common in gangs.

Well, go to a gun store with only a credit card and see how far you get.

As for if they will use the money from cash advances on CC to buy weapons, well, yes, just as any criminal would.

Yep, and they tend not to register them either, so that whole registration law is a load.

i like guns they complete me. they just need to convince gangs they don't need guns. how can you be accurate at firing as a caprice slides around corners. no sir all gangs do is waste ammo that i could be buying to shoot at trees, fish, birds, and the occasional ground hog.

gangs need laser guided mini rockets. yup just target the desired gangsta, wait for the box to lock.....presto.....the hit accuracy would go up......alot.

they can't complain about cost, crap if you can peddle millions in drugs.....whats a rocketlauncher?

they can even get those lasers for paintball and bb guns to add tradition to painting their target for the rocket launchers. just think one round could take out an entire mid 80's fullsize sedan.

thats all i got to say about that lol

Allows firing from car windows, over fences, bar counters, or simply chasing someone through the hood!

The illegals will rush to get credit cards because they think that this will keep them from ever being deported.If they get deported they wont pay the bill and BOA and the other companys selling us down the tubes would lose money

Then people need to be going after Bank of America - not worrying about guns. Getting a credit card has nothing to do with getting a gun. If everyone was to send BOA a letter, makes calls to their corporate office, etc, and explain their dislike - BOA might change their tune. If people with BOA were to start changing to another company and pulling their accounts, I imagine they would change their tune.

Too bad all of this is just based on a big IF....

My local credit union would never be able to get away with this kind of dirty business.

WHY!!!!!!! In 5 years there will only be about 3 to 5 main banking companys, these guys are merging like hoody's and black market firearms. If we all pull outta 1, another will buy 'em and do the same thing. Eventually there will only be one. I like choices too much. About the gun thing, not that it's relavent, It's federal law that background checks are done on anyone who is trying to legally purchase a firearm. If they don't do a background check get your money and all the paper work, leave the gun and, run forest, run!!!!! If not sometime later you'll get a most pleasant visit from our friends at the ATF. Support your 2nd amendment rights!!!! If we can't have guns guess who does- The GANGSTA'S and the FUZZZZZZ????
