Veteran discount?

Post by Tha_Veteran »

Does anyone know any gun dealers that give Veteran discounts? Guns, ammo, or accessories?

this is sort of old
But whenever i shop I always ask if the store has a veteran discount, some times it pays off and I get 10-15% off, :mrgreen:

I don't know of any off the top of my head but it never hurts to ask. The worst thing they can say is no.

The only place that I am aware of is Quantico Tactical in Killeen. That was a couple years back, I don't know if they still offer it.

I believe Dury's gun shop in San Antonio gives discounts to LE and military, and I think that includes vets. Been awhile since I've been there, don't know if that is still the case.

Crossbreed Holsters gives a 10% discount to military (active, retired or reserve).
MTAC Holsters gives a discount for active military only.

Also, I read recently in a forum that S&W gives a military discount of 40% (once a year) for guns. I haven't verified it but you can check out this link in the S&W forum: http://smith-wessonforum.com/search.php?searchid=304405" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; .

I'd like to take advantage of that myself but I have already bought 3 guns in 2009 and I'm afraid that at some point, my better half is going to rebel.

Barkley's Home and Ranch in Boerne, Texas always discounts vets. 10-15% on all handguns/rifles and ammo. :patriot:
They also have a great inventory on hand.
