Still looking for a gun friendly visa card.
I dumped the NRA card after the company firstbankcard cut them off.
I've been using my costco citi card, but want to stop using it also.
They started all this anti-gun bank mess.
Checked on-line and didn't find anything.
NRA has not returned my email about this.
Suggestions???
I use the card issued by my local credit union, no problems so far. For small gun related stuff and larger stuff if I trust the seller I use the same card linked to paypal as the source.
Are you (or can you qualify for) a USAA member?
It ain't rocket science, it's boolit science.
I went to our credit union to see who they get their card from.

Even my checking account bank is with
firstbankcard
USAA, probably not. My father was in the Army during the Korean war, but didn't stay in.
Most banks, credit unions, savings and loans, get their credit cards through a parent company.
When I asked, they didn't even know who was their parent company.
It would surprise a lots of people to know that their card comes from firstbankcard or citi.

Cabelas visa. Points back in cash. I have earned at 64 gun safe, a POF p415, a garmin, a RAR, a nano, a RCBS charge lite scale , and a few other firearms through the years all paid for by points
We use Sams club card, points, money back around Christmas time, helps with gifts. Bout $800.
Does Cabalas give cash back, or is it only discount merchandise???
You can use your points for Cabela's purchases only, unless there is a backdoor to unload them for cash that I don't know about.
First Bankcard is based out of that Omaha, NE, not New York so that is a plus. Believe First Bankcard are the ones that also used to service Cabela's credit card, however, with the BassPro takeover, Capital One fully takes over Cabela's credit card accounts in October and if you call them now, it is someone from Capital One that answers.
USAA, meh, been a member for over 35 years, but they aren't what they used to be and they have doubled down on advertising with the NFL if that matters to you.
I've been switching my banking to FedPen, their Visa is with First Bankcard, and if you maintain a $500 checking account their credit card pays 2% rewards. Membership doesn't require military service and there are a large number of affiliated companies that get you in.
firstbankcard is the one's who dumped the NRA.
I'll never got with then again.
citi and firstbankcard seem to be the biggest visa card around.
Maybe I'll look int mastercard.
Debit card with your local account. Gives same protection as credit card. For extra protection make it a separate account from your main checking and only put small amounts of money in it for planned purchases.
Did the credit card thing for my whole life until ten years ago. Cut them all up and I am so much happier and have a lot more money. They suck.

Sam's Club, Pentagon Federal Credit Union(Penn Fed), Local Credit Union. I no longer use a bank for anything, I have all of my accounts with Credit Unions and am very satisfied.
Don't worry about the interest rate if you pay it off every month. Sam's Club will automatically give you point's using it and 5% off gas at any gas station.

My wife's gives points back for use in the store. I don't have one. She thinks it says "cash back" but has never used it for anything other than stuff at Cabelas.

Used the Cabelas card for years. Now that Bass Pro bought them they are issued by Capital One. Merchandise at Cabelas only, but I hope they would also allow Bass Pro.
Will Cabelas be changing their points any when BPS takes over in October? Specifically- I dont want my points/dollar value to just disappear which I am very concerned will happen. I am trying to save up my points to buy some hunting equipment.
At one with the gun.
I quit using my Cabela's card for just this reason...I don't trust BPS. I spent all my "points" about 6 months ago.
I now use Capital One Amazon visa, due to them offering the best "rewards" that I could find.

While I am not a fan of Wells Fargo (for banking reasons, not 2A reasons)
They seem to be the one bank the anti-gunners hate, so maybe they are the most 2A friendly?

We had a whole lot of problems with Wells Fargo and not just their anti-gun stance. I wouldn't go near a mega monster bank for any love of money
