Is GunPal the Gun Owner's Pal?

Apparently it's like PayPal, only not anal retentive when it comes to guns. [More]

Anyone know anything about them or their founder's track record on gun rights? It sounds good, but personal references mean a lot more to me than press releases.

Here's their site.

Oleg Volk apparently thinks they're Good People:

.. and there's a Satisfied User who posted an experience with them in the comments there.

They were recommended on Survival the other day, I joined, but haven't used it yet.

Yes, I read something on them several days ago. I've bookmarked the site, but I have neither registered nor used them yet.

Gun owners aren't allowed to use Ebay or Paypal. We have to have our own websites and payment system. We're second class citizens. We've been marginalized. It's Jim Crow, discrimination, segregation and apartheid. And the commie lib MSM thinks we deserve every bit of it because we're private gun owners.

We own 400,000,000 firearms. That ought to tell them something.

I won't be using them. At least not until they dump the "charity" angle. If I want to donate to charity, I can do that on my own. I don't need to pay extra for a financial transaction - or make the vendor do so.

I'll pay cash, MO or use a credit card, period.

Heh - Paypal used to be down the street from me until eBay gobbled them up and they all became millionaires and left.
They're (Gunpal) some (good) guys from he CalGuns website mainly. Ben Cannon was an early adopter who got the ball rolling back in '01 with OLL's in California - that is off-list (the Roberti-Roos California AWB List - which got frozen) AR lowers that are perfectly legal to build upon as long as certain criteria are met.
Calguns is pretty active on the legislative front and they are challenging the arbitrary "certified" handgun roster. In a way that's how the Roberti-Roos list got frozen into submission and then consigned to the trash-heap - it's illegal to add to it anymore and it has become irrelevant and redundant.

Oh yeh, Don Kilmer (5th Advisor down) argued Nordyke before the CA supreme Court. I guess Cannon did the first OLL in '05 - I almost bought one then but was still too afraid. I have two built now - here's one, the other is my Match Rifle.

Interesting view. They are cheaper than paypal and they donate a bit of what they get to a charity or non-profit. They just ask you to select which one, I suppose because some people have preferences. Paypal would donate corporate money to charities too, just you dont get a choice where.
