> How many stores can afford to lose that business to their competitors?
I'm confident that dropping credit cards would result in less business lost than dropping standard-capacity magazines.
> The result is that you'll likely end up with all large gun stores not stocking these items.
Can you name some "large gun stores"? I know of a couple online, but I also know that the sets "customer who buy 'assault weapons'" and "customers who buy from large retailers" are very nearly disjoint.
> You'll have a few boutique stores that can't take card, but do have a wide selection of more powerful weapons and then they can explain when 99% of school shooters get their guns from these 1-2% of gun shops.
There are already at least ten million AR variants in the US. They don't expire.
