If you can pass the background check, regardless of how you look, you should be allowed to purchase the firearm. I doubt I would have passed Mr. Carter's look test at 18.

Wait a minute. It seems the only criteria from Mr. Carter is a pistol grip...not high capacity magazines, as evidenced by the Mossberg for sale in this weeks ad. So is the policy because it's "evil" looking? Or he doesn't think an 18 year old is mature enough?

Again, I'm all for a business making their own policies. I have a problem when they are more restrictive when it comes to 2A matters.

The government has screws us more than than any sporting goods store has. I personally wouldn't sell any gun to anyone under 21, unless I knew them real well. This doesn't mean the government should make the laws any tougher just that we and businesses should be able to make decisions that they are comfortable with.

No disagreement from me. I don't want the government telling CC what they should or shouldn't do. I believe businesses should have the right to choose who they do and don't want to sell to. I reserve the right to disagree with their choice and spend my dollars elsewhere.

My issue is that a gun store has taken a more restrictive stance than the government itself.

I called them today and asked about this and I was told that it is company policy.

My family has purchased several firearms from them over the past decade and we've always enjoyed going there.

I won't support a company that has policies that are more restrictive than the gun laws themselves.

I'm not aware of any legal restrictions due to a pistol grip on a rifle or shotgun that would change the eligible age of purchase from 18 to 21, so this must be a company policy. I believe this is something new for Carter's Country and its disconcerting.

I noticed in today's add, there is an advertisement for a Bushmaster Carbon 15 for sale. At the bottom of the description it says, "Must be 21 years old to purchase"

That is not listed under any of the other rifles or shotguns that are for sale. I have not noticed this before. Is anyone aware of this policy change and why it has been put in place?
